One more comment won't do any harm, though. As I can remember, the fdisk asks me first, what partition-type I want, then what number and then the size. Then I can choose a type with 't'. But I can chose partition 1 as volhdr, but then the installer fails to copy the kernel into volhdr, because, it was not on portition 9 as expected .. >> >Some more details on volume header stuff/dvhtool are at: >> > http://honk.physik.uni-konstanz.de/linux-mips/indy-boot/indy-hd-boot-micro-howto.html >> Is the link included to the instnotes in the bootfloppies? Silly question ... it seems to good, if we have some Infos like that on the bootfloppies or debian-mips website, or I'm wrong? Regards Jan -- .''`.
