Hi,
I am using slink on an IBM ThinkPad 755c with a separate DOS 6.2 partition.
My problem is that when I try to boot debian from a .bat file or from the
command line, loadlin gets to where it is uncompressing the kernel and then
halts the system with the message 'ran out of input data'. I have copied
my kernel from my /boot partition and placed it on my DOS partition
just like so:
cp /boot/vmlinuz-2.0.36 /dos/debian/vmlinuz
My debian.bat file looks like this
smartdrv /C
c:\debian\loadlin.exe c:\debian\vmlinuz root=/dev/hda2
floppy=thinkpad
There is nothing out of the ordinary in the debug output. There is
plenty of room in the setup buffer to accommodate the setup size.
And my system boots just fine from the boot disk. I'm at a loss for
what else to look at.
If any one could help I would really appreciate it. I am not a

Thank you,
Marc
