Hi Antonios,

you are very helpful. I changed the hex command to fat32 (code b if I remember well) and that error message disappeared.

Sorry to say, I get another "command not found" from 'sudo /sbin/ lilo ...' Strange enough, the other 'sudo' commands like 'sudo fdisk' and 'sudo mount' work well. Could it be that there's a problem with the supposed location of the command "lilo". A file search on my disk didn't give me any results.

I hope you're not tired yet :-)

Best wishes
Jurgen

There is a solition for this. If you search using the form in this

great, thanks a lot - I will have a look after clicking 'send' :-)

It wasn't very clear from the text on the page. Now i edited it a bit and
hopefully is easier to understand. :)



Again i think you have no sudo command. Maybe I am wrong.

sudo fdisk works... but it is true, I ran several times 'into a wall'
with sudo commands in Fedora because the root commands work somehow
different.
No idea about it...



Try the above and let us know how it goes!

I proceeded - however I set the partition #1 to 2000M. The instructions
on the website say to adjust the 800MB example if one is using the
liveDVD ISO - I want to use that one so I set the size a bit larger.


After the format command 'mkfs.vft -n puredyne -F 16 /dev/sdb1 I get the
message

WARNING: Not enough clusters for 16 bit FAT! The filesystem will be
misinterpreted as having 12 bit FAT without mount option "fat=16".

maybe you should try FAT32

i thing is should work



And here I'm stuck again. I don't know if it is 'just a warning', for
one it says there won't be a mount option and (2) the application
doesn't offer the choice to proceed but quits with 'mkfs.vfat: Too few
blocks for viable file system.

Best
Jurgen
