Hi Angus. Sorry if this is a little late. If you changed the script to root=/dev/ram, you have to make sure that the initrd is looking in the right place for the root.bin file. Rescue.bin is a rescue floppy image which is used along with root.bin to give you an extra console so you can create your filesystems. To do this you will need fdisk. Using it is fairly straightforward, you just have to know your drive geometry. I was going to calculate it for my drive, but I just did it the easy way trial and error lol! Explorer has caused a general protection fault in module kernel32.dll. I'm sick of Winblows! On Sat, 22 Jun 2002, ADFM wrote: > Igor > > > Hi Angus.
