How can I boot Woody m68k for the ATARI TT030 after installation?



Hi,

my file bootargs, which I used for installation is:

-s -k linux.bin -r root.bin root=/dev/ram load_ramdisk=1 video=keep
nolangchooser

where linux.bin and root.bin are stored to c:\Atari on my ATARI TT030.

Now I want to boot first time from TOS the new installed Woody system.

What is the syntax when I installed want to boot from root=/dev/sda3 ?
Do I still need a ramdisk? Do I still need the option "nolangchooser"? What
is the name of the kernel, i have to boot?

Can you write down the syntax exactly?

Thank you for help!

You do not need initrd, just make the boot parameters "root=/dev/sda3".

If you want to try a 2.4 image go to http://people.debian.org/~holgate

2.2 is more stable though.
