I found a spare 160Gb IDE hard drive laying around and so thought I'd try LFS scratch again. On my previous attempts I'd found getting the correct versions of the necessary applications a nightmare, and the liveCD refused to boot on my other machines. Now that I had a spare hard drive I could put it into my main machine which I hoped I'd have more luck with.
For the first time it actually managed to boot up to the isolinux loader (blue and grey logo with the orange and black console) however after pressing [Enter] to boot I receive the following message: boot: Loading isolinux: Disk error 10, AX = 4280, drive EF Boot failed: press a key to retry... I original thought it may have been a problem trying to detect the USB hard drive I have plugged in, so I unplugged that but it still won't boot. Currently there is the main SATA hard drive and the IDE hard drive I wish to install LFS on inside the case and only the mouse and keyboard plugged in via USB. Does anyone know what may be wrong here? I would have tried removing the SATA hard drive, however if that's the problem it's not really a practical solution. Regards, Ross Bearman
