Re: [M68k-build] bf 3.0.8 with basedebs patch

I am currently uploading a new bf build from CVS to my auric page: http://auric.debian.org/~cts/bf/ Once you see the [amiga|atari|mac]install.tar.gz files in 3.0.8-2001-07-15/ you can start downloading from there (in less than 1h I hope). This is supposed to work with basedbs.tgz, which

Okay, my install on my m68k LCII worked! Actually, I'm just at the reboot stage, so we'll see how that goes. It took about 10 hours or so, but it worked. The basedebs.tgz unpacking was certainly slow...but at 16 mhz, what should I expect? :-) Question about the prompt that comes with the

Warning?

Dear friends, I think you should *give a warning* for the suggested method to reset a partitionsize after having used fips or whatever method to diminish a partition. In the excellent text about installing Linux/Gnu there is this advice: 4.8 Partitioning for DOS Apparently, whenever you

Hey everyone, I've got a question about boot floppies on the various architectures: I just obtained my first x86 computer and to boot, I have to have two floppy disks: one rescue.bin and root.bin. I have never used the rescue.bin to boot for either my PowerMac or my m68k Macintosh. I

Hi Russell, For x86 we can't fit everything on 1 disk. The first disk (rescue.bin) holds the kernel along with a few device drivers. The second disk (root.bin) holds the root filesystem (system tools and libraries). For the debian-installer project we have fit it all on one floppy, but that
