Hi, I have a box with hda=30G and hdb=854M. The 30G is not recognized so I boot from a floppy and mount root on hdb (history and changing plans, soon to be fixed).
I would like to move either of these drives to a different box, which one gets moved depends on if the box they are in can see more than 64M of RAM. Of course I would like to find out before I start ripping out drives and start messing with jumpers. How do I pass mem=72M when using a bootdisk created during the installation of a kernel built with make-kpkg? Is there a way to tell the kernel it has more RAM after it is running? While I am fiddling with kernels and boot disks I may as well make a rescue disk, eh... but mkrescue doesn't work because /proc/cmdline is empty (result of the BIOS booting the kernel directly from a floppy?). I'm not even sure it would work to create a self contained rescue disk. Is mkrescue the right tool for this task? Any advice on making a rescue disk will be appreciated. - Bruce -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
