Bug#137486: woody installation bf2.4 kernel image broken



Package: boot-floppies
Version: 3.0.20-2002-03-05

When I try to install woody via loadlin in DOS with the bf2.4 kernel
flavor, loadlin says

Invalid copressed format (err=1)
 --- System halted

I used the standard install.bat:
..\dosutils\loadlin linux root=/dev/ram  initrd=../images-1.44/bf2.4/root.bin disksize=1.44 flavor=bf2.4

and tried differnt mirrors with the same result.

The idepci flavor works fine.

The machine is a Compaq Armada 1750 laptop running Win98SE (among other
OSes, but that's where I used loadlin form).

Regards,
Mart Sõmermaa ( wanted to use ext3 ;), now have to do with ext2 )
