Checked my notes and the errors that was being reported was 'unable to find
auto install file'. I attempted about 4 different installs before finally
coming up with the changes to syslinux.cfg.
So just to be sure, I spent all evening doing installs using the cooker file
sets from Apr 13, then 14 (the one I thought was bad) and 15th.
>From each file set, I created a 2 boot disks using the network.img file. One
disk contained the original syslinux.cfg and auto_inst.cfg files from the
14th, the other contained my modified syslinux.cfg
Friday the 13th file set worked for both installs,
Sat. 14th work for both installs,
Sun 15th worked for both installs,
Then I thought well may its only the generated auto install disk that was
causing me the problems snice that was what I had been using on Saturday
soooo,
Using the 13th's file set, did a minimal manual install and generated an auto
install disk, then used it to re-install, that worked.
Repeated with the 14th's, and it worked. However, I did have a lot of
trouble getting the system to boot from the floppy disk.
Repeated with the 15th's and it work too.
Seems I can't repeat the problem that I reported on Sat. Other than my
floppy disk drive being possibly intermitent, I can't explain what happened
Sat.
Best regards
Dave
