l tried the "test boot" but the system did not boot. Same for the boot into single mode.
l finally got it to install by getting the freshest IPSO 3.7 for NG3, IPSO 3.7 build 032.
This installed with just one hitch, the swap space is still set to 256meg, and not 1gig as required!
Is the disk partitioning info on the IPSO image or the boot floppy disk?
I am using the original boot floppy disk that came with IPSO 3.2, so l'm thinking this could be the issue.
Can anyone tell me where l can download the boot floppy image? or can someone email it to me perhaps?
Thanks,
Alan.

Hi Alan,
Are you trying to do a "test boot"? I used "test boot" to go from 3.6FCS3 to 3.6FCS7 and it worked. When I tried to do the same to go from 3.6FCS7 to 3.7v32, I got a ton of errors (can't find /image/testboot, page fault, etc.) on the reboot. I went around and around with Nokia on it and finally tried a test boot from FCS7 to FCS13, thinking there was a problem with 3.8b32. It blew up too.
Then, just for the heck of it, I tried to do a test boot of the FCS13 image that was already on the drive. I had been performing a fresh "ftp and test reboot" each time. It worked perfectly! After passing this on to Nokia, they advised that there was a bug in 3.6 where doing an "ftp and test boot" would do exactly as I saw. They said I should have read the release notes. I did, but apparently it is in the release notes somewhere between 3.6FCS8 and 3.7build 31 and I was supposed to read each and every one of them...
Anyway, try to boot to single mode via bootmanager (command prompt) and run df -k there. If you are at 100% or greater, run fsck -y to fix the errors. It's normal for /proc to be 100% full.
https://support.nokia.com/knowledge/resolutionView.jsp?ResolutionId=1767 has the info on how to boot into single mode. On the IP440, the command is simply -s whereas on other platforms it is boot -s
Sorry if some of this didn't apply to the IP440. It seems to be a totally diferent animal from other platforms bcause I keep reading "except for the IP440" in various documents.
