Hello,
Iam trying to install the Fedora 2 OS on a
AlphaServer 1200 5/533 4MB machine.
I did the following:
Got the following files from
ftp://ftp.rdsor.ro/pub/Linux/Distributions/AlphaLinux/core/2/iso/*
The files are:
AC-0.9-disc1.iso
AC-0.9-disc3.iso
AC-0.9-disc5.iso
AC-0.9-disc2.iso
AC-0.9-disc4.iso
README
MD5SUMS
Got the files to a linux machine(intel pc platform)
Used the 2 commands to create the CD. I just created only one
CD(AC-0.9-disc1.iso) for testing.
1. mkisofs -o disc1.iso -r -V disc1 AC-0.9-disc1.iso
2. used xcdroast command on linux to write to CD
In SRM prompt I used the following command to boot:
Prompt>>boot dka500 -fi "kernels/generic.gz" -fl "root=/dev/scd0"
Then I get the following error:
" dka500.5.0.1.1 is not a valid boot block "
Any help is very much appreciated.
With regards,
Kumar
