hello,

i'm trying to boot from a 32MB DOC. but am having trouble with mtd-lilo.
here's my setup, 
        133Mhz Advantech Biscuit PC (486 SBC),
        32MB Millennium 2000 DOC,
        2.4.6 kernel

what i did,
        got the mtd-lilo patches from earlier list
posting,                                     
	(http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2001-April/000049.html)
	build mtd-lilo
        ./mtd-lilo -v -C /etc/lilo.conf -i /boot/mtd.b -c /boot/map.b

now mtd-lilo runs ok, 

	Reading boot sector from /dev/nftla1
	Merging with /boot/mtd.b
	Mapping message file /boot/message
	Boot image: /boot/vmlinuz
Added linux *
	Boot other: /dev/fd0, loader /boot/chain.b
	Pseudo partition start: 0
	Added floppy
	/boot/boot.5D01 exists - no backup copy made.
	Writing boot sector.

and my lilo.conf looks like, 
	boot=/dev/nftla1
	map=/boot/map.b
	install=/boot/mtd.b
	prompt 
	timeout=50
	message=/boot/message
	image=/boot/vmlinuz
		label=linux
		root=/dev/nftla1
		read-only
	other=/dev/fd0
		label=floppy
		unsafe	

but when i try to boot with lilo nothing comes up, any ideas??

thanks 

dhammika
