Subject: PB2000 (pismo) install feedback
Date: Thu, 23 Mar 2000 11:14:37 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20000323111437.A10858@freeonline.com.au> (raw)
Hi all,
(I finally got yaboot configured (using a 100M bootstrap partition, hd:9), on
my pismo so I could test the pismo kernel.)
I compiled the kernel on a Lombard I have here, then moved the kernel
(vmlinux) onto my pismo bootstrap partition. Initially yaboot.conf contained:
image=hd:9,vmlinux
label=install
initrd=hd:9,ramdisk.image.gz
initrd-size=8192
novideo
However, on booting the kernel, I had some very pretty errors with the video
(very, very surreal - looked like a CRT next to a big magnet). However, when
I removed "novideo" flag it booted straight up!
Any ideas Ben & co? Is this a known issue?
Regards,
Chris
