Dear Rekans,
Mau nanya nieh, saya ada Laptop jadul Toshiba Portege 3110 CT dengan
dengan kelengkapan 1 USB port plus PCMIA. Dari Docking ada LAN dan 1
USB port lagi. Dalemannya PII 200Mhz, RAM64 MB, HD 6GB.
Rencanya win98 yang ada mau diganti linux lumayan buat ngetik,
browsing dan belajar Linux. Berhubung spek yang jadul maka saya coba
cari distro ringan. Di rumah ada DSL yang cuman 50Mb itu. Pilih DSL
karena live dan bisa diinstall kemudian dengan Debian base biar lebih
mudah nambah software pake apt-get.
Masalahnya Laptop gak mau booting dari CDRom via PCMIA maka dicoba
install lewat DOS.
Berdasarkan googling dan browsing ketemu cara di
http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/wiki/index.php/Loadlin_Install pake
Poorman's install
C:/ISOLINUX/loadlin @options.txt
====> hasilnya
Uncompresing Linux--- Ok, booting the kernel
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 01:00
Bagaimana solusinya ya?
===================================================
http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/wiki/index.php/Loadlin_Install pake
Poorman's install
This procedure requires the following things
- DSL cd, or dsl iso image file and a tool for extracting its contents.
- loadlin.exe, version 1.6c by Hans Lermen. Obtain this from his site
at http://elserv.ffm.fgan.de/~lermen/ or other dos/linux utilities
collection sites.
- either MS-DOS (3.3 or later), FreeDOS, or Windows (95, 98, or 98SE).
If the computer has Windows ME, 2000, or XP, and has a vfat (FAT32)
partition, you will need a DOS boot floppy (otherwise, tough luck
since Bill Gates owns you, body and soul!). A Windows rescue boot disk
will work; that of Windows 98 or 98SE is preferred.
Step 1
Try booting DSL off the CD first if you can. There is no point in
doing the next steps if this did not work. You may need a DSL boot
floppy if you cannot boot directly from the CD drive. Take note of all
the boot options that you needed to use to get the computer to its
best DSL state. Also note the device name of the FAT32 partition that
you will use for the installation. Obtain this information by
executing the command "less /etc/fstab".
Step 2
From the DSL cd or the dsl iso image file, copy the folder KNOPPIX
onto the computer's drive (partition) that is in FAT32 format. This
folder must be placed at the top directory of that drive.
Step 3
In the DSL cd or the dsl iso image file, locate the folder "isolinux"
inside the folder "boot". Copy the folder "isolinux" onto the top
directory of the same drive as where KNOPPIX was copied to.
Step 4
Extract the file loadlin.exe and place it inside the "isolinux" folder.
Step 5
Inside the "isolinux" folder, create a text file "options.txt"
containing the following lines (see notes below these for more
information):
linux24
root=/dev/ram
rw
initrd=minirt24.gz
vga=normal
ramdisk_size=100000
init=/etc/init
lang=us
apm=power-off
nomce
noapic
quiet
BOOT_IMAGE=knoppix
Notes
You need to edit these to include the boot options that you found
necessary when you first tried booting off the CD. You will usually
change the option "vga=normal" to something like "vga=788", "vga=791",
"vga=794" or whatever matches your video setup, although "normal"
works in most cases. Also, you may need to include the line
"fromhd=/dev/hda1" or similar that points to the device name of the
FAT32 partition where you placed the KNOPPIX folder. Most cases, this
is not needed as the boot script automatically scans all available
devices for the compressed image file "knoppix".
That's it for the installation. To boot to DSL, you have many options
depending on how good you are with editing the files CONFIG.SYS and
AUTOEXEC.BAT.
The basic procedure is to first boot your computer to DOS prompt, with
as little overhead as possible. With Windows (95, 98, 98SE), you press
the F8 key while booting up to get a boot menu, then select the option
that says "command prompt only". If the computer is too quick for you,
then wait for the computer to finish loading Windows completely before
shutting down to "MS-DOS mode". This may cause problems depending on
what utilities and drivers are active when you reach the DOS prompt.
Use the Windows rescue boot disk instead. Don't try to use the
"command prompt window" inside Windows as loadlin does its job exactly
the same way as common DOS viruses (overwrite DOS in memory, with the
exception of trashing your computer or sending obscene messages by
email to everyone you know and then trashing their computers).
Second, go inside the "isolinux" folder on the drive here you placed
it in. Next, execute the command "loadlin @options.txt". Everything
should boot up as if from the DSL CD, except that this one is faster.
You may encounter something new: a series of setup dialog screens.
Select the settings that match your machine. Afterwards you should see
the DSL desktop. If all you see is a blank screen or other weird,
blinking, or psychedelic images, the settings you selected are wrong.
Press Ctrl-Alt-F1 to get to the prompt line, execute "sudo shutdown -r
now" to restart the computer, and better luck next time. Note that you
can do things from this prompt line as you would from an XTerminal
window, the way Real Men used to.
