USB floppy problems (more details)
I have a USB floppy connected and sg.o, sd_mod.o and usb-storage.o loaded.
The device does not show up in /proc/scsi/scsi however, and
mount -t auto /dev/sda /floppy
fails ("not a valid block device") The drive works under Windows and BIOS
though. Any ideas? I'm using linux-2.4.22 and DevFS.
Please CC to me when replying.
TIA

boot floppy problems
Hi list Trying to install debian woody on my old 7200/75. Downloaded files in binary format. Created the floppy many time with mac/windows XP/linux but it is allways the same thing: - When booting with the boot-floppy-hfs.img I see a small picture with the pinguine (sp?) in front of a monitor and I hear the floppy working (being read?). This take abt one minute. - Then there is silence for 13 sec. - Then one final hum from the floppy, the screen goes black and the power led starts flashing. No responce to any keys except for the restart. Need to restart with mousebutton down to force floppy eject.

Boot floppy problems
I am trying to install hamm on my home machine, from cdrom. I can't boot a CD directly, so I tried to make a rescue floppy and boot that. The machine has 2 ide drives, and 5 scsi devices: 0:500M harddisk, 1:1200M harddisk, 2:cdrom, 4:40M harddisk, 5:tape drive I want to put linux on the first 2 scsi drives. The machine also runs os/2 with no problems. The scsi controller is an adaptec 2940. The first diskette boot stopped in an endless loop with scsi error messages. Removing power from the old 40M harddisk fixed it, but that is not a permanent solution. I want to keep an emergency boot system on that drive. The messages was several lines scrolling quicly, with something like "scsi 0:-1:-1:-1 Bad scbptr 16 during SELTO" and some other stuff. Do anybody know what to to about this? The second try got a bit further. No scsi problems, but still failure. The last lines written to the console were: Msdos fs rel(something) transaction block size 512 Kernel panic :VFS unable to mount root fs on 01:00 Could this merely be a bad floppy, or am I doing something wrong? I have trouble making those floppies, the rawrite2 program will usually complain about 64k DMA problems. It works now and then though. I am running rawrite2 under os/2, I don't have msdos around any more. Helge Hafting -- --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
Kernel crash after floppy problems
Hi all! I have a problem with my system. Unfortunately the PC floppy drives allow to remove floppy even if it is mounted. If later someone tries to use the directory where the floppy was mounted, the system crashes. I had also similar problems when during the mount the file system wasn't specified correctly (e.g. umsdos instead of ext2fs). Once there was a power supply failure in the external zip drive - results where the same. It was necessary to perform hardware reset in the computer, and then run fsck... :-( Is it possible to make my system less sensitive for errors occuring in using removable media? I'm going to use one of my linux boxes for continous recording of biomedical signals, and I wouldn't like to be forced to remove all floppy drives from it to avoid risk of hang up. May be there is something wrong with the configuration of my computers?

boot floppy problems - invalid compressed format
I'm having a lot of trouble getting Debian on a 486 box. It's a pretty generic machine, with an IDE hard drive & cdrom, AMD 486 CPU on a motherboard with the Opti chipset. Special kernel 0 doesn't get anywhere at all. THe standard kernel gets to this point: Loading. Uncompressing Linux invalid compressed format (err=1) -- System Halted I'm stuck.

boot floppy problems
I've refrained from getting into the internals of "dialog", but it does not look as if I have any choice. The core dump in "modconf" and the suppression of character echo in the boot floppy are both caused by a (reasonably simple) bug in dialog concerned with its trying to render a string that is too wide for its window. Thus, I'll fix that this weekend and release a new boot floppy set. Thanks Bruce -- Pixar's "Toy Story": Over 1/3 Billion dollars world box office so far.
