Bering users guide to build a bootable CD states very clearly that
it uses ISOLINUX to boot a 'flat' CD and not a floppy emulation as
is usual.

I have had failure reports with users that have older BIOS'es.

But follow carefully the doc.

Have fun!

Subject: [leaf-user] "Could not mount the boot device" error message


Hi folks,
I'm making a new Bering bootable CD, and I think I have followed the step by
step instructions in the Bering user's guide exactly, and I get this error
message:

end_request: I/O error, dev 02:00 (floppy), sector 0
end_request: I/O error, dev 02:00 (floppy), sector 0
LINUXRC: Could not mount the boot device. Can't install packages. Kernel
Panic: Attempted to kill init!

I've made a bootable CD before, but I'm obviously forgetting something.
Suggestions?

Best Regards,
Craig
