I want to run a 32 MB IDE flash memory as my HD for bering uclibc 2.2.3.
According to the directions, I need to give it a first bootable partition
and DOS format it.
Call me a stupid noob but I don't know how to do that. The drive is 6
months old but I have never ever used it before.
Would someone please give me instructions on how to do this using windows
XP. I could also but could also use knoppix if its easier.
Thanks,
Andrew
Sorry - I scrambled things and sent it inadvertently.
You can make a LEAF boot diskette - strip the LRPs not needed and
install ideutil.lrp and do all the stuff like
syslinux -s /dev/hda etc
or you can go to http://www.bootdisk.com and fdisk and format it in
DOS. This is a mess to do in Widows because it locks the CF
Make sure the machine you set it up on has the bios setup to correctly
read the CF if you are using a CF to IDE adaptor
fdisk
format c:
syslinux -s c: using syslinux.com (download from the net as this is the
DOS program not syslinux.exe
You can copy the LRPs with DOS copy or windows explorer (CF - usb
adaptor) or linux cp
