Re: Allways my problems

Hi Patrick,

You have to patch the kernel if you wish to use a CF *and* a hard disk at
the same time. See http://www.openbrick.org/en/Members/jp/flash.patch/view/.
It's small but absolutely required, and won't harm in a more "normal"
situation. So my suggestion is to install the patched kernel on the disk
from your other computer, and try again.

If you're really that desperate, don't burn it, but send it to me instead...
;-)

Sébastien.

Subject: [Openbrick] Allways my problems



I tried a new time to install Mandrake on the hard disk with an USB DVD and
a bootable CF.

I patched the OB and the actual BIOS is 2.0L

The installation work well since writing the "programme d'amorçage" (Master
Boot Record ?) on the disk. The message I obtain is ":part_nowrite: read::
input/output error:".

I allready installed the same distribution on the same disk on an other
computer today, but putting it on the OB, I obtained the error "kernel
panic: no init file" and I didn't found the reason or a patch for that
(changing /etc/fstab, etc/lilo.conf wasn't enough).

What can I do now ? I have all tried, I do nothing else to do...

Help me before I burn it, please.
