Disappearing files on CD-Rs
I've come across a strange situation in which files seem to go missing from CD-R drives. The files are really there, but can't be found after some period of time on various Linux systems ranging from Caldera OpenLinux 1.3 with a SAF SCSI CD-R drive to a Caldera 3.1.1 Workstation with a SCSI Nakamichi 5 disk CD changer. The ISO images were made on a Caldera OpenLinux 2.3 system running mkisofs-1.12b5-3, and burned on an Apple G4 running OS X 10.1.3 (it's much faster than the 2x SAF drive). It appears that the problem may be media related. I've attached what I think are the relevant portions of dmesg output from a COL 3.1.1 Workstation system when I ran a script that tested for the presence of each file that is on the CD. I ran the same script on the G4, and it found all the files without errors. The media in this case is no-name from CompUSA, written at the default maximum speed on the G4. I'm burning a new one, this time on a TDK ``32X compatible'' CD-R to see how that works. Any suggestions on what might be causing this other than cheapo media?

OK, here's what I do: /boot contains: kernel-x.x.x (usually called bzImage-2.4.x-xfs-1.1 or some such) System.map-x.x.x (same extension as kernel) /modules /boot is not mounted by any distro, if/when I need to alter it, I mount it, work with it, umount it. my lilo.conf contains various images, such as: image = /boot/bzImage-2.4.18-xfs-1.1 label = foo root = /dev/hda2 read-only image = /boot/bzImage-2.4.18-xfs-1.1 label = bar root = /dev/hda3 read-only I build the kernel on one partition (say /dev/hda2). After a complete install and test boot (usually via a boot disk w/ the kernel dd'd to it), change lilo.conf, run lilo, copy /lib/modules to /boot/modules, then mount /dev/hda3, cp -a /boot/modules to /lib/modules there. This copying is necessary because /boot is on /dev/hda1 which is never mounted, /lib/modules/... needs to be accessed early on in the boot process (and so must be on the root partition). Now I can boot 27 or more different root partitions (distros) using the same kernel and modules. That help? Ciao, David A.

Re: /boot partition and modules/kernels
Do you mean the initrd (initial RAM disk), which is in /boot? That is where you place some modules needed by the kernel. Mainly those relating to eventually accessing the root disk, where the remaining things are then found. Are you wanting to place other modules there? Unless you hack the setup, they will not be used. After the kernel loads the drivrs needed to mount the root partition, this ram disk is deleted. I do not think the kernel will load other modules there. Of course, I bet there is a script somewhere that controls this at boot time. But it is all in the initrd stuff.
