I've tried with all the partitions of that disk a thru h: /[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0 /[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0:a /[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0:b /[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0:c ...
and get the same error: Rebooting with command: boot disk:a Boot device: /[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0:a File and args: The file just loaded does not appear to be executable. I don't really know what is wrong here. Jurzitza, Dieter wrote:
Hi Ivan, from what I read from your mail and given that /dev/sda1 is your root partition (containing /boot as well) I'd guess that you ought to test (in openboot): probe-scsi-all You are trying to boot like: Boot device: /[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0 this refers to the SCSI ID 0 on controller 2 but you do not specify the apropriate partition. So what you need to test is: probe-scsi-all what ought to give you something like /[EMAIL PROTECTED],4000,[EMAIL PROTECTED],1 Target 1 Unit 0 Disk IBM DGVS09U 03B0 /[EMAIL PROTECTED],4000,[EMAIL PROTECTED] Target 6 Unit 0 Removable Read Only device If you want to boot of one of those you hafe to specify: boot /[EMAIL PROTECTED],4000,[EMAIL PROTECTED],1/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0:f (harddisk) boot /[EMAIL PROTECTED],4000,[EMAIL PROTECTED],1/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0:f (cdrom) This gives: -> pci - device at 1f, 4000 [EMAIL PROTECTED],1 *external* Controller channel [EMAIL PROTECTED] harddisk with scsi-id 1 ,0 LUN 0 :f Partition F this can constantly be integrated by setting nvalias /[EMAIL PROTECTED],4000,[EMAIL PROTECTED],1/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0:f extdisk being "extdisk" an example. The variables can be printed via the command "devalias" In general: Strg-P returns the last commandline in openboot (as "little" help). Hope this helps, take care Dieter Jurzitza
