Hi all,

So I finally got my hands on a Multia to play with. I've been wanting to fix
my Intel/PC-skewed picture of the world for a long time. :)

Started following the brillo Multia HOWTO written by Our Gus (he has it up
on his, erm, extensive homepage at: <http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~gusl/>.

Soon realised that potato has a spiffy tftpboot.img made especially for this
situation, and booted into the installation system with it. Ahhhh, something
I recognise! :D

After floundering with BSD disklabels for a bit, I decided to go way simple:

  a (/dev/sda1): 40M swap (Starting on sector 2)
  b (/dev/sda2): ~950M ext2


Now, after doing all the configuration and rebooting I get:

  aboot: valid disklabel found: 2 partitions.
  aboot: loading uncompressed ...
  aboot: loading compressed ...
  
  unzip: unknown compression method

  <insert aboot help stuff>


Then, I've tried again (by typing '0' which is listed properly) and I get:

  aboot: loading uncompressed ...
  aboot: loading compressed ...
  aboot: segment 0, 2709256 bytes at 0xfffffc0000310000
  aboot: zero-filling 248136 bytes at fffffc00005a5708
  0.0.1: file not found


Any ideas?
