Re: making a boot disk

I have exactly the same problem in wanting to make a boot disk and get the same error message as you. Have you managed to solve the problem yet. Please let me know if you have a solution to this problem. Sorry I cant help you. All the best jm On Sun, Jan 07, 2001 at 10:22:03AM -0500, D-Man wrote:

Re: making a boot disk

Is that 'lba32' option supposed to allow booting a kernel that is located after the 1024th cylinder? I always thought that was a BIOS limitation, not a LILO one. I can't use LILO for booting anyways because my BIOS doesn't allow booting off the second IDE bus. LILO hangs at "LI" when booting.

making a boot disk

I now have Debian bootable from loadlin (which is how my system is set up). Now I want to make a backup boot disk on a floppy. I tried running mkboot, but it gave some errors and the disk wasn't bootable afterwards. Warnin
