Bonjour, I would like to install linux on a compact flash and boot with grub. I make the installation on an intermediate host and the final host will be a machine soekris net5411.
how I proceeded! 1. I made partition to the compact flash in the following way: /dev/hde1 10Mo ext2 boot flag /boot ro /dev/hde2 10Mo ext2 /etc rw /dev/hde3 236Mo tmpfs rw 2. I copy the kernel; initrd; the grub files; ... in the partition/dev/hde1. 3. I configure the file menu.lst serial --unit=0 --speed=19200 --word=8 --parity=no --stop=1 terminal serial # Boot automatically after 0 secs. timeout 0 # By default, boot the first entry. default 0 # Fallback to the second entry. fallback 1 # For booting GNU/Linux title GNU/Linux root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz root=/dev/sda1 ro console=ttyS0,192008n1 initrd /initrd.img 4. I installed the stage1 on the mbr of the compact flash dd if=/home/debian_testing/boot/grub/stage1 of=/dev/hde bs=512 count=1 This made, I install the compact flash in the soekris and with the boot of this one, only GRUB is posted in the terminal. I do not see if it is a problem with stage1.5/2 or my configuration's file or other. Thank you for your assistance.
