Chera, The initrd.lrp package is a gzipped minix filesystem image. If you rename it to initrd.gz, unzip it and loop mount it (using 'mount -o loop <initrdfile> <mountpoint>'), you can access its contents. Then add the ide-floppy module (from the modules tarball) in boot/lib/modules and add a line to boot/etc/modules, unmount, gzip and place it again on your CF disk. Seems you have bad luck with your CF adaptor though: about 3 weeks ago I upgraded from 2 floppy setup to CF disk/adaptor setup and it was immediately detected as HD device and booted from the CF straight away. Got my CF adaptor here: http://www.cf-ide.de/produkte/cfdisk5.html Regards, Jaap ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
