Did you copy install\linuxaux to Z:\linuxaux? Or, after the failure, what happens if you type ls /z/linuxaux? following could be interesting for next release: - way to precise keyboard mapping as kernel arg You mean for non-English keyboards? Hm. I know very little about Linux i18n, especially at this level. Any suggestions for what to read? - way to send log or dmesg to network (netcat or ftp) Trouble is, a lot of things have to work before the network is even operational. I am thinking we should try to capture more data in flat files, then provide instructions for how to upload them yourself (to help us diagnose things). * freedos with undisc3.imz chipset untested (sis 651)A UMB unavailable This should be harmless; it just means umbpci.sys didn't work. This might reduce the amount of free conventional memory (possibly resulting in out of memory problems), but it should not cause the failure you are seeing, I don't think. In future releases, we will dump umbpci.sys and use the FreeDOS EMM386 clone. The FreeDOS folks have recently (this week) made it play nicely with DPMI extenders.

OK, opcode Ch is PXENV_UNDI_GET_INFORMATION, which just returns your network adapter parameters like the MAC address. Sounds straighforward. (Back to index... Exit status, exit status... Here we go, section 3.5.) OK, status 6Ah is PXENV_STATUS_UNDI_INVALID_STATE. Hm. Not much information there.

I need to include the kbd suite (http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kbd/) and arrange to invoke loadkeys at startup. Those keymaps are going to take up a couple megs of extra space on the boot disk image. Oh, well. I want to release 4.0b this weekend.
