Yep, that boots fine, but halts at various stages, and I can't determine
why. So, following Gus's howto, I tried building my own bootpable kernel.
Here is my latest problem:
:/tmpdir# mount -t msdos rescue.bin /tmp/fdimage -o loop
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
or too many mounted file systems
man mount didn't enlighten me at all, do I need to edit /etc/fstab?
Thanks,
Rob
