It is possible that the allocated memory for your system disk is insufficient.

You have the CD-ROM in both, but it should only be in one. Try the following: boot=/dev/fd0:msdos PKGPATH=/dev/cdrom:iso9660 The naming of the boot= setting is somewhat misleading, due to historical reasons, and really indicates the location of your write-able media for storing configuration changes. With the fixed boot= and PKGPATH= settings, if you have a package on both the CD-ROM and on the floppy, using package:R should load the package off the floppy and stop, ignoring whatever's on the CD-ROM. From my Dachstein-CD README: http://www.leaf-project.org/devel/cstein/files/diskimages/dachstein-CD/README.txt package[:searchorder][,package[:searchorder]] package is an LRP package file (without the .lrp extension) searchorder controls the pakckage load behavior, and is one of: f forward search, load multiple packages *DEFAULT* F forward search, load first package found and stop r reverse search, load multiple packages R reverse search, load first package found and stop A forward search starts with the PKGPATH entries (read right to left) and looks at the boot= device last A reverse search starts with the boot= device, and goes through the PKGPATH entries (read left to right) Note package:R looks at the boot= device first. By making boot= point to your CD, and adding your floppy drive to the PKGPATH= setting, you effectively reversed what would be the normal load order (CD first, floppy last) for a CD-ROM system with configuration stored on the floppy.
