problems installing debian on a cobalt raq 550



Hello, I’m new to the list and not familiar with cobalt raqs, I saw it was possible to install a sarge on it, so I’m trying …

 

I have read a howto on installing sarge on a cobalt raq or cube (http://www.cyrius.com/debian/cobalt/sarge.html), but I can’t make it work on a raq 550. Can someone confirm that this howto is applicable or not to a raq 550 ? I’ve searched the archive list but didn’t found anything confirming this, and how !

 

 

if the raq is set to bfn via nfs :

 

IP-Config: Got DHCP answer from 192.168.1.130, my address is 192.168.1.125

IP-Config: Complete:

      device=eth0, addr=192.168.1.125, mask=255.255.255.0, gw=192.168.1.1,

     host=cobalt, domain=, nis-domain=(none),

     bootserver=192.168.1.130, rootserver=192.168.1.130, rootpath=/nfsroot

And with cobalt set_boot_type to netkernel (set in the boot section of the bios of the raq) :

 

BOOTLOADER: opening "/boot/vmlinux.gz"

BOOTLOADER: reading "/boot/vmlinux.gz"

BOOTLOADER: read 55646bytes

Back in ramcode: done

Second stage kernel: Decompressing -Error bunzip2ing kernel. Trying gunzip.

and it then reboot :

 

command line: 'console=ttyS0,115200 debug ip=on root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=192.168.1.

130:/nfsroot-x86,rsize=8192,wsize=8192 '

booting kernel...

Thank you,
