of course ! here it comes:
SA-110 (buggy version) RiscPC -32Mb ram -6.4Gb ide -I-cubed Ethernet A
RiscOS 3.7
!linux bootloader 3.36 alpha
ide disc partitionning:
/dev/hda1 filecore, 74 MB
/dev/hda2 linux table
/dev/hda3 linux swap, 65MB
/dev/hda4 linux native, 2169MB, mounted on /
/dev/hda5 linux native, 3842MB, mounted on /home
Misc. details : IscaFS is unable to mount these partitions (don't know
why,maybe because of the swap position), and the filecore can only be read
from linux, writes fail with "permission denied".
/dev/root is a link to /dev/hda4
Boot.conf:
kernel{
name = "2.2.16-rmk2";
path = "/vmlinuz";
root = "/dev/hda4";
flags = readonly;
};
riscos {
name = "Risc OS";
};
I hope this helps...
