Imagine the image as not a hard disk, but a big floppy drive.

I am not sure how this works then. Do i need to create the partitions manually? And then load syslinux manually into the MBR?

There is NO partition table on the image, so that's the reason it doesn't detect them properly.--

Hi all,
I used the 2624 image from the website and also compiled my own from arch sources. But when I write the .bin file to my 1Gb compact flash device it creates 4 partitions that are highly mangled.
dd if=<image.bin> of=/dev/hda
The first partition is no doubt a FAT12 and the image boots upto a certain point but then stops with "no inittab found" and asks the user to input the runlevel.
I think that the mangled partitions have something to do with some files being missing.
Any pointers would be helpful.
