Hi I just have find out what was wrong. If the disk already was used in a windows machine it just don't work! I have tried the same thing on a new disk (80Gb) and it works fine! Then I have tried it again wit a old HD and .... nope. It don't boot! It seems to bee the same problem as with the XboX Now I have tried the same installation with a RaQ3 AND a new HD and it works!! Even with a low level format it won't boot Write the disk with full with zero's with Dd ... it won't boot afther the installation. Very strange, but... I think that Cobalt only want to work with a virgin ;-)
Thanks a lot!

Does this work? - Do you have a serial console? If so, what does it say? - Do you have a smaller disk? Some people claim disks over 30 GB don't work for them. -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
