 In vmware2 I am not able to boot the kernel from boot2, it hangs after

 I tried current,stable and generic kernels, all without luck.
 
 This was not really a problem, until I wanted to use etherboot, where I
 ofcourse can't use loader.

fyi: this was fixed by statically compiling the hints file into the kernel.

kernel booting diff between boot2 and loader

2002-06-10 Thread Mark Santcroos

I wonder what is different in booting the kernel from loader(8) and from
boot2.

In vmware2 I am not able to boot the kernel from boot2, it hangs after
loading the kernelfile. Using loader it goes fine.
I tried current,stable and generic kernels, all without luck.

This was not really a problem, until I wanted to use etherboot, where I
ofcourse can't use loader.

Any help or insight into this will be gladly accepted :-)

Mark
