I am been a baby and jumping in before I can swim, trying to run linuxboot-0.4 , make iso on a debian testing box.
I am amazed at the amount of work other people do a weekends.
Dosemu seems to have a few different files in the configuation for debian, I am just using the src deb file.
Eveything seems (doesn't it always) fine.
Untill : make: *** No rule to make target `../bootdisk/empty-boot.img.gz', needed by `stage1/var/lib/dosemu/drives/dosboot.img'. Stop.
Which I would think comes from line 219 in linuxboot-0.4/Makefile:
219> stage1/var/lib/dosemu/drives/dosboot.img: dosboot/autoexec.bat \
220> dosboot/config.sys dosboot/lredir.com \
221> ../bootdisk/empty-boot.img.gz
I asume this is down to my ineptness of make files, but I tried to copy bootdisk/empty-boot.img.gz from unattened-4.0-test2 to so my installation now looks like this linuxboot-0.4/bootdisk/empty-boot.img.gz
Any ideas to point my in the right direction would be much appreciated.
If not I will try and get a redhat system up nextweek.
Can't say I will do anything at the weekend, except play in the snow.
Thanks
Max
Here is where is stops:

Now you must install DOSEMU. Make sure you are root and:
make install
make: Leaving directory `/home/tom/src/linuxboot-0.4/build-dosemu-1.2.0/src'
[ -e build-dosemu-1.2.0/bin/dosemu.bin ]
