Hi!

I just installed the latest version of AstLinux (i586) on CF.
The CF was installed in a mini-itx case (no cd-rom, no video card). The  
motherboard is a VIA vt82C686b.
The Flash Card is recognized by the BIOS as secondary master. I access  
the box with a serial link and Minicom 2.1.

My problem is: GRUB hangs without error message.

The Kernel image seems to be found, as shown in the output from the  
following CLI commands:

------------------------------------------------------------------------ 
--------

grub> root (hd0,0)
  Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83

grub> kernel /boot/bzImage root=/dev/hda1 astlinux=i586 astkd=/dev/sda1  
astopt=/dev/hda2 ide=nodma
   [Linux-bzImage, setup=0x1400, size=0x182595]

grub> setup (hd0)
  Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... yes
  Checking if "/boot/grub/stage2" exists... yes
  Checking if "/boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5" exists... yes
succeeded"embed /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd0)"... 16 sectors are  
embedded.
  Runnin "install /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0) (hd0)1+16 p  
(hd0,0)//boot/grub/stage2
/boot/grub/menu.lst"... succeeded
Done.

grub> boot

------------------------------------------------------------------------ 
--------

At this stage, nothing happens, it just hangs. Minicom now shows  
"Offline" status. I was wondering if it was a serial connection issue,  
but I can't ping eth0 nor eth1 at 192.168.101.1, and no DHCP lease was  
given from my DHCP server.

Any hint?

Thanks,

Pierre
