Subject: Hard drive problems?
Date: Fri, 3 May 2002 08:13:54 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020503080703.C19286-100000@agora.rdrop.com> (raw)

Last night I hooked up my IBM and tried downloading the latest ELKS.  I
think I ended up with 1.0 pre 4 as I got an access denied message tring to
get the latest version.  I boot up and get the following:

Loading Init
hd: error: AX=0x0
BIOS HD:I/O error
dev 380, sector 260
init panic

ELKS..

login:

I login as root and get everything between "loading init" and "ELKS"
above, then "no shell!"  Here's the catch, I have no hard drive, and the
boot process correctly detects my drives.  Here's what I do have, should
it be of any help:

IBM PCXT 640K RAM
NEC V20
VGA video
1.44M floppy with "comb" image
no other boards aside from FDC and VGA

I booted .83 which was on the disk before my latest download, and it
worked fine.
