Hi, After having successfully compiled MINIX (it works ...) I tried the next step towards having my ST booting MINIX from harddisk: I put MINIX.PRG into the AUTO folder of my boot partition, MINIX.IMG onto that partition and booted - MINIX came up alright, *but* after telling me to insert the ROOT disk into drive 0 ("or specify root device ..."), which I did, it loaded the ROOT disk into memory (i.e. ram disk) but kept telling me that it got a signal (#4, I think) over and over again. Has anybody tried this before? Any help out there? Do I miss something here? Any suggestions? Thanks, Dirk Husemann ---------------------- Smile, tomorrow will be worse! ------------------ X.400: <S=dkhusema;OU=informatik;P=uni-erlangen;A=dbp;C=de> RFC822: dkhusema@immd4.informatik.uni-erlangen.de RFC822: dkhusema@immd4.informatik.uni-erlangen.dbp.de [BETTER!FASTER!] UUCP: {pyramid,unido}!fauern!immd4.informatik.uni-erlangen.de!dkhusema Home: Dirk Husemann, Aufsess-Str. 19, D-8520 Erlangen, West Germany Busi- University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Computer Science Dep., ness: IMMD IV, Martensstr. 1, D-8520 Erlangen, West Germany Phone: (Home) +49 9131 302036, (Business) +49 9131 857908 -- Beam me up, Scotty, there's no intelligent life down here! -- ------------------- My opinions are mine, mine, mine -------------------
