hi, i'm an M5 and Python newbie. I would like to ask something in connection
with this:
http://www.mail-archive.com/m5-users@m5sim.org/msg01071.html
i was able to create an image file and i followed the instructions, that is, I
modified my FSconfig.py as well as my rcS file(i just appended what was in the
message), but no new disk image was mounted or detected(it failed). the "z"
folder still contained nothing.
the segment of my FSconfig.py containing my modifications:
self.disk0 = CowIdeDisk(driveID='master')
self.disk2 = CowIdeDisk(driveID='master')
self.disk3 = CowIdeDisk(driveID='master')
self.disk0.childImage(mdesc.disk())
self.disk2.childImage(disk('linux-bigswap2.img'))
self.disk3.childImage(disk('customimage.img'))
basically i was expecting 3 disks to be mounted: swap, linux-latest, and
customimage. am i modifying the python script wrong? the bootup screen STILL
goes like
ide0: BM-DMA at 0x8400-0x8407, BIOS settings: hda:DMA, hdb:DMA
ide1: BM-DMA at 0x8408-0x840f, BIOS settings: hdc:DMA, hdd:DMA
hda: M5 IDE Disk, ATA DISK drive
hdb: M5 IDE Disk, ATA DISK drive
ide0 at 0x8410-0x8417,0x8422 on irq 31
hda: max request size: 128KiB
hda: 101808 sectors (52 MB), CHS=101/16/63, UDMA(33)
hda: cache flushes not supported
hda: hda1
hdb: max request size: 128KiB
hdb: 4177920 sectors (2139 MB), CHS=4144/16/63, UDMA(33)
hdb: cache flushes not supported
hdb: unknown partition table
so i assume my new disk image wasn't being detected.
thanks a lot!
