In this stage I'm still with problems, so I'm booting my machine
from the networks only. I'll appreciate any comments about
the syntoms:
0 > boot disk |
/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0:-1,/etc/yaboot.conf:
Unknown or corrupt
filesystem
Can't open config file
Welcome to yaboot version 1.3.6
Enter "help" to get some basic usage information
The partition looks like -1, but I tryed differents ways helped
by "help" yaboot command without success.
My /etc/yaboot.conf file looks like:
boot=/dev/sda1
device=/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/@0: # Got by ofpath /dev/sda
partition=5
root=/dev/sda5
timeout=30
install=/usr/lib/yaboot/yaboot
nonvram
image=/vmlinux
label=Linux
read-only
/vmlinux is the same image used to boot by net that I copied
before.
The only differce with your howto belong to my patitioning:
debian:/home/gpoo# fdisk -l /dev/sda
Disk /dev/sda: 64 heads, 32 sectors, 17501 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 1 1008 41 PPC PReP Boot
/dev/sda2 9 130 124928 82 Linux swap
/dev/sda3 131 17501 17787904 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 131 416 292848 83 Linux
/dev/sda6 417 702 292848 83 Linux
/dev/sda7 703 1942 1269744 83 Linux
/dev/sda8 1943 2896 976880 83 Linux
/dev/sda9 16548 17501 976880 83 Linux
Me root partition is /dev/sda5 and it's a logical partition.
(I'll try repartitioning to primary partition).
Thanks in advance for any pointer or comments.
