- Anyone had this experience?? I'm trying to install linux using
- bootimage 0.98 and rootimage 0.97 The installation process proceeds
- nicely until I attempt to:
-
- mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt
-
- To which linux responds 'Segmentation Fault' and a nice core dump.
- I have tried manual installation, tried using the installation scripts
- included in rootimage, tried parititioning /dev/hdb different ways, etc..
-
- mkfs -c /dev/hdb1 (size) works fine. Its just that darn mount command.
-
-
- Both my drives (hda, hdb) are IDE drives. I've got a ordinary 386 clone,
- 4 megs ram. Since hda is one dos partition, I also tried:
-
- mount -t msdos /dev/hda1 /dos
-
- but that returns with "Segmentation Fault" too.. Arrgghhh!!
-
- Any suggestions???
-
- Thanks..
