Ken,
This is getting painful but I'm not ready to give up yet. I dropped
out of the chroot into FC5 and did the modprobe loop. That worked and
when I went back into the chroot and tried to run the mkrescue I got the
following:
Copying files...
`/boot/lfskernel-2.6.16.16' -> `/tmp/mkrescue_24171/mkrescue-flp/linux'
cp: writing `/tmp/mkrescue_24171/mkrescue-flp/linux': No space left on
device
done.
Running /sbin/lilo ...
Ignoring entry 'boot'
Fatal: write map~: No space left on device
LILO version 22.7.1 failure.
There is over 6.5 Gig on tmp what the heck is it trying to put out
there? The kernel is only 3.4 Meg. Or am I missing something else? I'm
confused. Help please.
Arnie
