I found http://lhpca.univ-lyon1.fr/axp/README
and there the section on the srm console and aboot.
it says:
You will get an "aboot>" prompt, type:
aboot><boot-path>/linux root=/dev/<root-device> load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=1"
I tryed that but what do they mean with <boot-path> ?
If I enter
linux root=/dev/fd0 [...]
it tells me
...blah...
aboot: loading plain linux...
Cannot access data beyond an ofset of 1474559
Offsetrequest was -2035709375 (or something like that)
ext2_bread: read error
aboot: read returned -1 instead of 8 bytes
aboot: loading compressed linux...
unzip: attempt to read past eof
What to do?
