Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
1. Yes, these computers tend to be i586 and lower machines. Haven't heard
any reports for i686 machines.
2. Correct, 6.1.1-1 fails to boot as well.
3. Correct, all the 6.2-pre{1,2,3} worked for me.
4. I don't remember the outcome of this test, I thought I would have
written to the list or something. Sorry, can check it out again after
work.
5. Correct, the bind mount didn't help the situation.
6. Correct, the DM CD I make and tested worked on a i686 but pauses with
"Setting up loopback devices...", even before printing "Starting init..."
7. I will need to try it again tonight. I didn't examine the Makefile
before running it and then going to visit the old computer. 6.1.1 doesn't
have LFS-ARCH defined and therefore the initramfs didn't get copied to the
CD. I have it remaking a iso now and can test after work.
8. Bummer
I'll get back to you tonight about the shell based init.
