* I'm using sarge * system currently runs win98 in a ~1G partition. * Linux Swap (40MB) and Linux (~1G) partitions are already set up (ranish partition manager) * Network card is PCMCIA by Xircom
I have downloaded the sarge hd-media files and have an install.bat that goes like this:
c:\linux\loadlin vmlinuz root=/dev/ram0 devfs=mount,dall ramdisk_size=12000 initrd=initrd.gz
Looking at the documentation for loadlin, I think the "root=/dev/ram0" parameter may be wrong, although the documentation is not completely consistent.
Could you try with just /dev/ram0?
Could you also try with /dev/ram and /dev/rd/0 (both with root= and without I guess to make sure)?
It reads the kernel and the initrd just fine but then crashes when trying to mount the root fs on 01:00
I've also tried 2.6 kernel but I get an error telling me that init isn't defined and that I should add an init= line to the loader...
c:\linux\loadlin 2.6/vmlinuz root=/dev/ram0 devfs=mount,dall ramdisk_size=12000 initrd=2.6/initrd.gz
