Hi Alan,
Ok. What´s actually happends is that when I boot up the darnest thing with
RH6.0 it complains about the CF Flash, SDCFB 80, ATA Disk Drive, like this
Partition Check:
hdb:hdb: irq timeout status=0xff {busy}
hdb drive not ready for command
I haven´t done much lately except experienting a bit since I got the tip
from You (many thanks for that), and I apologize if this question has been
asked before, I was in a rush, and emailed, before I knew there was an
archive of this mailinglist.
Some questions about installing from a RH Linux 6.1 on a PC110:
1) When I boot up the PCMCIA boot-disk from the 6.1 distribution I´ll
first of all get the mentioned error-messages, and after that it askes
me for a Drivers Diskette. What ?!? Will the PC110 handle the
new installation program from Redhat?
Hmm.. The whole point of this is to install an OS on a laptop that doesn´t
make any noices like a Harddrive does. (I have a 250 MB hardrive too, but
there´s Windows 95. I want a quit computer with a minimal Linux system! :)
Thinking of Linux on a 3Com Palm ?
btw. Alan, have a look at
<http://oflug.linux.no/ukuug99conf/ukuug99conf.html>, I hope You are not
mad if You some pictures of You there. :)
