RE: input/output error WAS: (no subject)

Hello,

sorry I gave you a bad description of my problem: I created a bootable
CD-ROM and a floppy disk set from the same pxesconfig run; when I booted
from CD-ROM, all was ok, but when I tried to boot from the HD (installed
from the floppy disk set) I get the error messages described. 

I think you found the error, it's the ramdisk size. It may be a trivial
question (RTFM?) but where I have to set the ramdisk_size if I want to do a
HD installation from floppy? I see this parameter at the remote
configuration file but it is possible to set it before creating the floppy
disk set (and write it to floppy)?

Thanks in advance.

Stefan Witzel

I didn't understand the procedure (what floppy ?).

But the problem is a too small ramdik_size=XXXX in kernel command line 
parameter.
