Hi Folks,
Has anyone tried using a FreeBSD 5.x kernel with MD_ROOT, and booting off a FAT-formatted media with something like syslinux? I'd like to be able to download new fs-images to a flash-booting system and still have the ability to select which image to boot (something like Cisco IOS images). Ideally the flash would be readable with a regular PC (hence FAT) for upgrading too.
All the info I can find on this type of kernel+mfsroot booting is for PXE rather than a local image... can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm also concerned that there might be a maximum size for the md_root device - my 'root' will actually be around 100MB in size - is there an issue with large md_roots?
Thanks for any pointers,
Best Regards,
Howard
