I am having some trouble writing the resq1440 disk to upgrade to Debian 1.2.3 from my existing Slackware system. I did read the installation manual, and got the message about disks - but now I have gone through a box or more of brand new Sony disks (not all from the same box) and am having a hard time believing that they are all bad.
I got the CD from iConnect and tried to follow the directions - cd /cdrom/stable/disks-i386; ./make-disks This does not exist, so I changed to current and then ran dd if=resq1440.bin of=/dev/fd0 bs=512 conv=sync; sync to create each disk. I have now created more than 2 dozen disks which will not boot. Am I doing something wrong? Is there any way I can get a decent set of disks made so that I can get with the Debian program? I would hate to stay with slackware...but at least I can install it. Thanks in Advance, Randy -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
