Severn NFS Install

Jeremy,

You may have been right...So I again mounted the disk 1 iso image to /temp2
and then ran "dd if=/temp2/images/bootdisk.img of=/dev/fd0"

I start up and do a linux askmethod and it fails giving me "boot
failed...please change disks".  This happens during the loading of the
kernel on one floppy, and a second floppy this happens during loading the
initrd.

Any ideas?

Eric

You're using a Red Hat Linux 9 boot disk, not a Severn boot disk :)

Cheers,
