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 NET4: Unix domain sockets 1.0/SMP for Linux NET4.0.

Freeing unused kernel memory: 112k freed Warning: unable to open an initial console. Kernel panic: No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel. <6>disabling network interfaces.
And with cobalt set_boot_type to netkernel (set in the boot section of the bios of the raq) :

and it then reboot :
