Hi Frank,
The installation procedure run beyond the point where you had to enter
the country you live in, the keyboard layout, then it recognized my
cd-roms correctly (2 scsi drives connected externally).
Then the screen went blue and nothing else happened.
Just a little self-comment. Seems that I've been too impatient. Tried it
again today and it worked until Linux wants to recognize an ethernet card.
:-) Well, it would need the network card fopr a net install I guess.
Looks like we established that running the bootstrap as GEM program is somehow
fatal, but the real question is why that is? The difference in ramdisk load
position is minor, really.
I tried it only with EtherNat installed and Linux unfortunately didn't
recognize it.
The EtherNAT patch may not be in the install kernel yet (hey, I only got it
working a month ago or so).
So atm I try the procedure again with my NetUsBee (EtherNEC compatible)
installed.
Hope my last EtherNEC bugfix is included, at least.
Keep you informed.
Regards,
Frank
P.S.: Just in case, a nullmodem cable is available ;-)
Well, now that you found out your Falcon behaves just as mine, I'll just use my
own nullmodem cable :-)
Michael
