I created both floppies under RH 5.1 on the same machine on which I'm trying to install potato. The FAT formatted floppy: mkfs -t msdos /dev/fd0 mcopy root.bin a: Results in (using load_ramdisk=1 at Milo prompt) RAMDISK: Couldn't find valid RAM disk image starting at 0 The unformatted floppy: dd if=root.bin of=/dev/fd0 bs=1024 conv=sync; sync Results in (again, using load_ramdisk=1) ufs_read_super: bad magic number Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 02:00 So should I give tar a try? Or ext2fs, minix, ... formatted floppies? Stefan Schroepfer
