We defer that step until dosemu is running, because FreeDOS format has the "/a" ("align clusters") switch which we want to use. I might try to port that support to mkdosfs someday, but that is not a very high priority since we plan to run dosemu anyway. > Anyway, the script continues on and finds my XP source files.

Thank you for testing :-). If you could catch the exact error message, that might be useful. But first... Unattended 4.0b-rc1 includes the 2.6.4 Linux kernel which might work better. Could you please give it a try (from http://unattended.sourceforge.net/testing/ )? The other thing you might try is adding "noapic" to the kernel command line ("append ... noapic" in pxelinux.cfg/default). - Pat ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
