As I write some days ago,
I tried this, after flashing th CF with the new image from buildroot:
grub> device (hd0) /dev/sda
grub> root (hd0,0)
Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83
grub> setup (hd0)
Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... yes
Checking if "/boot/grub/stage2" exists... yes
Checking if "/boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5" exists... yes
Running "embed /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd0)"... 16 sectors are
embedded.
succeeded
Running "install /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0) (hd0)1+16 p
(hd0,0)/boot/grub/stage2 /boot/grub/grub.conf"... succeeded
Done.
It hangs on soekris and grub doesn't works but I noticed it works on a
Via Epia machine!!
It's very odd!

Hello Astlinux experts,
Forgive me if this is a very trivial question.
I am trying to build the astlinux using the new build
environment and then plan to write this to a CF card as bootable astlinux.
I was able to do the build by copying astlinux.config as .config
and compiling the stuff.
Now my problem is. how do i create the CF image.
I tried by selecting ext2 as filesystem for target device in the
"make menuconfig" GUI and then I got rootfs.i586.ext2. Then I wrote this
to a flash card using DiskImg utility. But this CF card is unable to
boot. But when I try to directly download the geni586.img for the flash
card from the site for Astlinux 0.3 and write it to flash card using
DiskImg, then it is bootable and had no problems.
But I need the flexibility of building this myself in order to
add some more packages...What am i missing in creating CF image ?
Thank you very much in advance.
Regards
voipwala
voipwala,
This is what we need! The image will need to be fixed up a little
(symlinks, permission fixes, etc) but we need to create an actual
CF/disk image and install GRUB on it. We can then place the files from
build_i586/root in it.
