Can you mount the partition and put the tarball on it, and then booting this?
Ramdisk: no, bootable cdrom: no, floppy install: no tftp-boot: yes
You have an APUS system, that means -- if i'm correct informed -- you have
an amiga as the host or base system with an expansion card, and on this
card is the 604e proz. You boot m68k-linux and switch to the 604 part or
booting the 604 and use the 68040 (or whatever) as fpu or second cpu , ????
Please describe your system a little bit.
On the m68k side we have the bootstrap to boot the kernel. The kernel image
is outside the root-partition. Can you do this also with your 604 system?
