RE: Re: Re: 43p-150 booting Debian on chrp
Sven,
As far as booting, that did the job!! Thanks. After I go through the
install and reboot, it will not reboot. I have to boot net again, and none
of the drives get mounted. (You were right about the kernel install being
manual), How do I move it over from the bootp server? And do I now need a
Kernel without initrd built in?

Try the one at :

In one or two minutes, it should be ok, the file is :
3929008 2003-09-05 17:06 zImage.initrd.chrp-rs6k
No guarantee though, since certain things are hardcoded for pegasos
(like parted instead of ddisk, and keymap possibilities), but maybe it
can do.
Also some steps (like kernel and modules installation) where removed, so
you need to do them by hand.
Friendly,
