Hi, 
after some time, I'm retrying to boot my board (a MVME2431) from the HD,
but still I have to use NFS. I partitioned the HD as:

Disk /dev/sda: 64 heads, 32 sectors, 8683
cylinders                             
Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512
bytes                                           
                                                                                
   Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id 
System                        
/dev/sda1             1      8620   8826864   83 
Linux                         
/dev/sda2          8621      8680     61440   82  Linux
swap                    
/dev/sda3   *      8681      8683      3072   41  PPC PReP
Boot                 

then I create an image (make zImage) that is normally working when
booted by NFS (could be this the problem? there are some option to set
during the kernel compilation?) and copied it to /dev/sda3 using dd.

But when i tried to boot from the HD I obtain this:

I looked both in /dev/sda3 and in
/usr/src/linux/arch/ppc/prepboot/zImage and what I get is (the results
were the same):

and I cannot figure from where I get this IPL Size =AC444000. If I
understand right what is written in the PPCBug manual it seems that the
code start at 1024 (byte 512), and the lenght is 0x095f6c (byte 516),
nothing related to AC444000; I'm missing something in the partion? Or
I'm using a wrong image?

Thanks

Well, I don't think so. I'm also very surprised since I have a very
similar setup and I have never seen this command fail (NetBoot is another
story), the length in /dev/sda3 is correct. 

What is your verssion of PPCBug ? 

Can you try PBOOT;A and PBOOT;V ?

I had a lot of problem on MPC750 to have PBOOT working with the
same archive than via the NBO command. The reason was a byte swapping
problem in the IDE low level command.

What is actually at vger does not work on my board. I have to patche the kernel
with the following patch :

   Hello,

     I have seen this on our boards in the lab and at customers.
It seems to be related to left over data on the drive.  In other
words, if you have a disk with this problem and you zero out the 
beginning of the disk (by specifically writing blocks of 0's to
the drive for the first couple hundred blocks), this issue goes 
away.  I have not had any time to track down why this is a problem,
but obviously some non zero value in an inopportune place is 
causing a problem.  Either in the partition table, of the
boot block of the partition. (Of course, I always use /dev/sda1 
as the boot partition, so my above fix didn't help narrow that
down any)

     Unfortunately, this is very destructive (unless you do it
when installing), you could experiment with less brute force 
methods.  I would be curious to know what you find out.  Good Luck.

I'm using /dev/sda3 to boot, but I tried anyway to zero it to see if
something change, but without success. I give a dd if=/dev/zero
of=/dev/sda3 count=100 and then I copied again zImage in the partition,
but the result was the same of before. 

Before erasing all my system I would like to be sure that if I use
/dev/sda1 it will work. My board is a MVME2432 with a MPC101 PCI
mezzanine card.

Thanks

I've had problems in the past with some Powerstack systems not being able
to boot a PReP image from anything other than /dev/sda1....since then I've
been recommending everybody just install the image to sda1 and root from
sda2.

I tried to recreate you problem because I didn't think it existed on our
newer PowerPlus systems.  I slapped a PMC101 in a MVME2431 in the rack and
installed Debian/PowerPC to it with sda1->swap, sda2->root, and
sda3->prepboot with no problems.  It made the system automatically
bootable from sda3 and a "pboot 10 40" (disk on SCSI ID 4) booted up.

Can you post a dump of your partition table on the disk plus the first 1k
of the image?  I have seen the error before somewhere but I think that was
on a byte swapped IDE system the PPCBUG couldn't read...SCSI doesn't have
that problem..bad bad IDE.

* Re: A question about zImage when booting from HD

Ok,
I retryed to boot from HD using the new 2.2.12 kernel compiled with the
last patches made by Gabriel.  Just to be sure I repeated the same
procedure of before, first I zeroed the partition with:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda3 count=1000
and I checked that was zeroed; then I copied the kernel image with:
dd if=/usr/src/linux/arch/ppc/prepboot/zImage of=/dev/sda3
(is the same image that i'm using to boot by tftp).

This is the output of the dump in the disk:

Instead if I dump the boot partition I get:

And they seems to me identical. In any case when I give pboot 10 50 (I
have the disk un LUN 5) I get the same error:

PPC4-Bug>pboot 10 50
Booting from: NCR53C825, Controller 10, Drive 50
Device Name : /pci@80000000/pci1000,3@10,0/harddisk@5,0
Loading: Operating System

IPL Size Exceeds Free-Available Memory:
IPL Size              =AC444000 (&-1404813312)
Free-Available Memory =01F74000 (&32980992) 

And also looking in the header I do not understand where this AC444000
come from. My dubt is that I'm using a wrong driver for the SCSI, so I
write something wrong; this is what I have in .config:
#
# SCSI low-level drivers
#

CONFIG_SCSI_AIC7XXX=y
CONFIG_AIC7XXX_CMDS_PER_DEVICE=8
CONFIG_AIC7XXX_PROC_STATS=y
CONFIG_AIC7XXX_RESET_DELAY=15

CONFIG_SCSI_NCR53C8XX_MAX_TAGS=32
CONFIG_SCSI_NCR53C8XX_SYNC=20
[snip]
# CONFIG_SCSI_DEBUG is not set
CONFIG_SCSI_MESH=y
CONFIG_SCSI_MESH_SYNC_RATE=5
CONFIG_SCSI_MAC53C94=y
(I didn't touch the original config that I take from Gabriel site, I
just add the NCR53C8XX).

I hope this help on understanding he problem. In any case I cannot try
to put the kernel in /dev/sda1 until I get a new disk.

Thanks
