Hi there,
I recently installed the latest debian release on a SA-RiscPC. It works
really fine (nearly everything from kernel recompilation to vnc access
...I've just a paging handler request bugging in xdm & a couple of other
things -mainly mouse & keyboard screwed up). I used the original debian
disks images and it worked nearly the first time without problems.
I re-compiled the loadmap program so that I can boot the RPC directly into
debian (from the ARM Linux original sources distribution, e.g version
1.6.0).
It compiles fine, executes and says it wrote a 512 bytes bootsector from
boot.conf.
When booting with Russell's bootloader for riscos, it complains about
invalid /boot/boot.map magic.
When turning on debug option ., it says boot.map fits in a 1024 bytes block,
it reads two or more bytes and stops with that error.
I've one IDE disc partionned as follow:
hda1 is ADFS
hda2 is Linux Table
hda3 is swap (64Mb)
hda4 is / (1.3Gb +)
hda5 is /home (3.2Gb +)
Any idea ? The boot loader needs special partionning ? the 2.2r0 debian
install is not compatible with that technique?
Thanks in advance
