RE: [leaf-user] expanding /dev/root on diskless LEAF boxen
Hi Christopher, I am looking for this too : I want to add some packages to my Bering distro who seems - to my eyes - to be the best for now, because the kernel level and the famous Shorewall... The good way is to burn a bootable CD. I have one who runs correctly, and I am not able to add anything more than my floppy already has :-( This is only due to my misunderstand of the problem who occurs. It seems that my process creates only floppy emulation instead of hard disk. I you are able to do one image with hard disk emulation, please, lets me know how you do that ! Thanks in advance and good luck !
