Ok,
Still trying to boot from disk to see if my custom kernel for my new
Gentoo Linux install is any good or not.
I have tried several different versions of roms from sourceforge.net.
Both v 2.10.1 and v 2.10.2 left me hanging at
First stage kernel (Linux): Decompressing - done
And the LCD said Kernel Panic
Then after a minute the machine would restart itself.
Now I went back to v 2.10.3 and I now get
First stage kernel (Linux): Decompressing - done
ERROR: cannot relocate with filesize 0
No kernel Panic or restart.
Now I can do a bfx r d on all the above roms.
However I can't get the kernel rom, first stage going when booting from
disk.
I can boot from the network just fine from all as well.
Please help I am getting desperate!!!!!!
This is the last thing I need to do to complete my installation of
Gentoo on my XTR.
