G'day Ben

Good to see you are still around and using mondo! :-)

From the log I gather that, yes, you are definitely running out of space
on the 2.88 floppy image. However, as opposed to Luca who was only a few
kb short, in your case, the space on the floppy image is already
exhausted even before the kernel is copied. This is because initrd.img
is 2851 kb already. This is the culprit I believe.

So, it would be fabulous if you could send me that initrd.img file, so
that I can have a look at it. You would have to added another cp command
immediately after the cp commands for initrd.img and copy the initrd.img
file to say /tmp.

However, before we look into this and because you've already run out of
space completely before we even getting to copying the kernel image,
here is a very silly question (that I urge you to take seriously ;-) ):
Are you running out of scratch space, i.e. is '/usr/local/scratch' (or
whatever the mountpoint) full? The reason I'm asking is the in mindi's
log (originally one line):

cp: writing
`/usr/local/scratch/tmp.mondo.1814/tmp.mondo.25184/mindilinux/1035/mountpoint.1035/initrd.img':
 No space left on device

Cheers
Andree
