Brad, I kinda thought I was vague. I just grabbed ftp.lrp and will install it tonight so I that can ftp off command output.
I will try to answer some of your questions inline. - --- Brad Fritz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Dave, > > You left out a lot of information that could help us > answer intelligently.

No, I did not have ntfs.o loaded. fdisk did report the filesystem as HPFS/NTFS (or maybe it was NTFS/HPFS). I didn't realize they were the same. I assumed it was NTFS because the DoC did have embedded WinNT running on it.

What is the best way to capture this info...nevermind I see there is a script.lrp, I will install it as well. > Have you already tried Step 3 of the DoC Bering user > guide chapter at: > >http://leaf.sf.net/devel/jnilo/budiskonchip.html#AEN1268 Thanks for the pointer. I know for a fact I did see the "Possible DiskOnChip with unknown ChipID FF found at 0xc8000" type messages at boot. I also know I did not have the mkfs.msdos executable. I guess I need to install mkdosfs.lrp and will do so. > One last question, what is the output (e.g. from > /var/log/syslog or the console) when the DoC-related modules load? I will capture it and command output tonight and send a more informative message.
