I am trying to bootstrap a Debian install with GRUB, but I fail:(
After some hours trying and reading I give up and turn to you guys.
I've put the necessary files in /debian on a fat32 partition on hda1.
If from a dos prompt I do:
dosutils\loadlin linux root=/dev/ram initrd=images-1.44/root.bin \
disksize=1.44
All's swell, but when I try GRUB menu's like:
#Menu 1
title Debian GNU/Linux setup woody from mirror
root (hd0,1)
kernel /debian/linux root=/dev/ram
initrd /debian/images-1.44/root.bin disksize=1.44
#Menu 2
title Debian GNU/Linux setup woody from mirror
root (hd0,1)
kernel /debian/linux root=/dev/ram initrd=/debian/images-1.44/root.bin \
disksize=1.44
then the linux kernel barks that it can't mount it's root fs.
Could some kind soul please explain to me what the heck I'm doing wrong?
