Subject: Problem booting from DiskOnChip 2000
Date: Mon, 19 Jan 2004 19:05:50 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <400C1C7E.2090404@treimers.net> (raw)

Hi all,

I have a board with a DiskOnChip 200 module from M-System. I have been able, to 
start the driver as a module and partitioning and fromatting the chip. I am 
struggling to boot from it, does anybody have an idea?

Find below the messages from my Bios and from Linux during boot (from floppy).

what it means ...

During boot it stop's after sending out only some characters from linux load:
SYSLINUX 1.76 0x3d93445f

Maybe I should clean the chip by a tool, maybe I should install a new
firmware on the chip? I tried it together with a hard disk with Windows and the
disk-on-chip tools from MSystem. This worked really fine so I decided to
install Linux now.

And, last but not least: Dave Woodhouse, I would like to apologize for sending 
out an email to you (which you did answer nevertheless). I just discovered this 
mailing list and how to get help.
