Hi guys, I have been able to bring the Jacques Nilo's Bering Leaf distribution up on a Disck-On-Chip (DOC2000) based system. I am using the Beta 2 since there seems to be problems with modify the Beta 3 floppy image. Following is the summary of changes to make it happens.
(1) The DOC2000 has one partition. It is used as an ext3 filesystem. The content of the floppy image is put on the DOC's partition. (2) Grub. I am using grub to boot up from DOC. Following is the /boot/grub/menu.lst file. default 0 timeout 5 title=Linux with video card and keyboard kernel (dc0,0)/linux ramdisk_size=1536 init=/linuxrc \ root=/dev/ram0 boot=/dev/nftla1,ext3 LRP=root,etc,local,\ modules,pump,keyboard,shorwall,dnscache,weblet,dhcpd,ppp,\ pppoe,log,libz,sshd,sshkey,ssh,sftp initrd (dc0,0)/initrd.lrp Notes: - The kernel command is all on one line. - There is no PKGPATH. That will hang the DOC2000. Mtd devices can't be mounted at multiple points at the same time. (3) Loading required modules at boot time. The /boot/etc/modules is changed to load the following modules: (the order is very important to detect nftl on DOC2000) mtdcore docecc doc2000 docprobe nftl mtdchar mtdblock jbd ext3 There is probably no need to load mtdchar and mtdblock. Both the jbd and ext3 modules can be replaced by another fs module, like ext2, if ext2 file system is to be used for the DOC2000. These modules are also downloaded into the /boot/lib/modules directory (4) Add the following to the /var/lib/lrpkg/root.dev.mk file to create the /dev/nftla devices. #DOC & nftl makedevs nftla b 93 0 0 8 s >null 2>&1 makedevs nftlb b 93 16 0 8 s >null 2>&1 That is all!
