If loading kernel 2.5.68 from boot floopy, and changing disk when prompted, to root floppy, it starts to load the root fs from floppy but stop with: blk: request botched
the root floppy is built (on 2.4.20 machine) using these commands:
dd if=/dev/zero of=./root.fs bs=1k count=1400 mkfs -t ext2 -N 200 -m 0 ./root.fs mount -o loop ./root.fs ./root cp -a $root_contents/* ./root umount ./root dd if=./root.fs of=/dev/fd0 bs=1k
thanks for any info on this.
Ragnar
