kernel install on a Cobalt Raq4
Hi,
Anyone succeeded in installing a Debian Woody distribution on a Cobalt Raq
(4)?
Pleasy help me out. Perhaps this is a more generic question, how to install a
Debian kernel on an empty machine (only with debootstrap initialized), which
is temporarly booted from the net with NFS.
I followed the fine instructions on http://cobalt.iceblink.org/debian/debian-
cobalt-howto.txt and succeeded for most steps. When I got at step 9, to
download a debian kernel, me as newbie, don't know where start from here.
I tried to downloaded the kernel-image-2.4.18-k6 package and all its
dependencies from the debian site and installed them on the system (dpkg).
The installation of some packages gave some errors which i did not know how
to resolve. I was chrooted to the new and mounted filesystem root.
The dpkg with sysvinit gave some timeout errors:
init: timeout opening/writing control channel /dev/initctl
And dpkg with the kernel image gave:
Failed to create initrd image.
dpkg: error processing kernel-image-2.4.18-k6 (--install):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 29
Errors were encountered while processing:
kernel-image-2.4.18-k6
I bzip2'ed the vmlinuz-2.4.18-k6 to /boot/vmlinux.bz2 (according the install
instructions) but the bootup failed with various error messages.
Anyone can help me with this?
Following are the bootup messages:
