This is taken from a tutorial by Antonio Garcia,a Trinux developer. IMPORTANT: Trinux HD I've installed is version 0.45 (see spet 3). I think not all latest packages support Trinux HD Well... Installation on hard disk (TrinuxHD) from Windows 9x. 1) Create a sub directory named "trinux" in the root directory of the hard disk where you are going to install Trinux. 2) Connect with ftp://ftp.trinux.org/pub/trinux/images/stable/0.45 3) Download and uncompress the file "trinux.zip" into the "\trinux" subdirectory. 4) Check the uncompressed files (something like this): C:\>dir trinux 3C59X O 21.780 14/02/99 14:31 Driver for 3Com network card left here. 3C509 O 8.628 14/02/99 14:31 Driver for 3Com network card left here. LOADLIN EXE 32.208 18/08/98 13:13 Linux loader from DOS. MODULES 6 14/02/99 19:18 This file tells Trinux which modules load at boot. TRINUX BAT 50 14/02/99 19:15 Runs LOADLIN with the proper parameters. RAMDISK 66 14/02/99 19:18 File to configure ramdisk filesystems. NETBASE TGZ 169.437 16/12/98 0:11 NETBASE package. INITRD GZ 1.014.405 15/02/99 0:25 Compressed image of root filesystem. NETMON1 TGZ 303.217 13/01/99 6:32 NETMON1 package. NETKIT1 TGZ 53.414 10/01/99 23:34 NETKIT1 package. NETKIT3 TGZ 108.201 16/12/98 0:45 NETKIT3 package. NETMAP2 TGZ 120.618 16/12/98 0:08 NETMAP2 package. NETMON2 TGZ 99.328 16/12/98 0:42 NETMON2 package. NETMON3 TGZ 40.304 16/12/98 0:42 NETMON3 package. NETMON6 TGZ 59.696 16/12/98 0:42 NETMON6 package. SERVER TGZ 89.646 29/11/98 22:21 SERVER package. SHELL1 TGZ 82.548 16/12/98 23:28 SHELL1 package. SNMP TGZ 50.453 29/11/98 22:21 SNMP package. SYSTEM TGZ 56.560 06/12/98 22:21 SYSTEM package. ZIMAGE 373.464 14/02/99 15:14 Linux (Trinux) Kernel. 20 files 2.684.029 bytes 5) Now boot Trinux to see what happens: 6) Reboot your computer in DOS mode. (Trinux won't boot in a DOS window.) if you are booting normally your Window box, press F8 key during boot to let Windows show the startup menu. Pay attention. You have only a couple of seconds for F8 key being accepted. 7) When the startup menu appears press [SHIFT-F5]. 8) CD \TRINUX 9) Run TRINUX.BAT. At this point kernel and all packages (*.TGZ) in the trinux directory will be loaded at a great speed :-) Hope you enjoy, folks!
