I am trying to install slakware 3.6.0 on a
Compaq Deskpro XE 486sx33 with 4 megabytes of RAM,
/dev/hda maxtor 7080at (80M), /dev/hdb seagate st5850a (850M).
When I try to boot with either bare.i or lowmem.i bootdsks, I get:
LIL-
Is this a floppy geometry error ? How can this be ?
When I use:
loadlin c:\slakware\kernels\bare.i\zimage /dev/fd0 rw ramdisk=0
I get:
VFS: Cannot open root device 00:00
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 00:00
This machine boots DOS v6.22 from either floppy or C:.
?
