same problem, when I reach "Hard drive detection", I have : "An error 
occurred failed to get /lib/modules.cz-2.4.20-pre7-ac3: No such file or

yes, sorry, I meant blank.rdz not cdrom.rdz ;-)

what I did :
dd if=blank.img of=/dev/fd0
mount /floppy
cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage /floppy/vmlinuz
umount /floppy

boot on the floppy.

ok, now the floppy boots fine, but the installation process stops when 
looking for /lib/modules.cz-version which is missing.

Should I modify the cdrom.rdz ?

may you please tell me what are the necessary options or send me a 
.config you are using ?

Here is mine and it doesn't work. I even don't get any log on the 
screen. I don't understand exactly what is wrong.

[Cooker] How to create an install floppy for Mandrake

2002-09-27 Thread Eric BENARD / IFrance

Hi,

I'm trying to create an install floppy for Mandrake 8.2 or 9.

I need to use a 2.4.19 kernel as ide in 2.4.18 has some bugs which 
prevent to use it with promise controlers.

What I've done :
mount the floppy, replace vmlinuz with the new one.

And ... it doesn't boot .

Do you know where I can find the .config for the kernel used in the 
install floppy ?
or better : do you know where I could find instructions on how to create 
such a floppy ?

Many thanks for your help
Eric
