Hi, I'm trying to install arm linux on an 4MB A5000, but I've come across some problems. I've got kernel-2.0.31-1997.10.18 and the root image a5k-1997.10.29 from http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/. Some of the A5000 links from the downloading page are broken - are these the correct ones to use? I also couldn't find an appropriate supplemental disc image. I've reformatted the hard disc (only 40MB, but I'll put a larger one in if I can install successfully), and made the ADFS partition 10MB. !Linux 3.36, the kernel and root image are in the ADFS partition. I then start !Linux passing the kernel and root as arguments. The output is as expected Uncompressing Linux...done Now booting the kernel Console: ...etc Further down I get ... 22.07 BogoMIPS Initrd overwritten (0x02130000 < 0x021b79e8) - disabling it. Memory: 2560k/4096k ... The rest of the output looks fine, and then I get prompted to insert root floppy disk. I've tried making one, and it loads into the ram disk, but then stops at some variable place later. This time it stopped at creating 100k of ramdisk space... but it changes each time. At this point I can type anything at the keyboard and it is echoed to the screen but ignored, and I have to reset. Any ideas?
