Re: Booting From Rescue Disk To Begin Clean Install
sounds like a problem with either the bios on the boot machine, floppy
disk (I'd check this first. just recently bought a 20 pack of s h i t t y
disks, pardon my french), or a bad drive possibly on either machine
and most likely the booting one.
Either way, you're on the right track with getting the rescue disk but
you need to grab root.bin and driver1-4.bin also. make sure you have
some good disks that dd cleanly, 14 in and 14 out. and some time for
the install. It really sux you don't have a cdrom to run off of but
I'm noone to talk.
I'm so lazy that after putting together my newest server I used the same
two floppies throughout the install process. Lucky for me I had a couple
machines here to juggle with.
