Hi all, it's me again ;)
How do i get woody booting from hd on this IBM PReP system? What happened until now: Gerhard Kroder wrote: > Last, but not least, i gave carolina_bootimage_2.2.18_with_fb a try, > workes fine instead of boot.bin. Currently i try to continue install > process with root.bin... After some weirdnesses with this, i finally have woody running on my 7248-133. I still use these "carolina..." image, booting with a floppy disk. I couldn't get the "make bootable" option get done what is should during base floppy installation. So i looked around in the later running system and found man pages for yabootconfig, ybin, mkoboot ea. i created with yabootconfig a base /etc/yaboot.conf, added nonvram and fstype=raw, as man page tells. i created a bootable "typ 41" partiton of 2 mb with cfdisk during installation as /dev/sda1, which should then carry the bootloader i tried to install with mkoboot. But it didn't work. When rebooting, the systeme want to eat the original SMS floppy disk. So, how do i make my PReP system boot from HD? Is yaboot good for this? -- MfG Gehard Kroder -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
