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
