- Subject: [ECOS] redboot booting problem
hi,
I am doing a platform porting for xycom 654 board. I built the floppy
image. By the way xycom board is like a pc board with pci bus and etc.
While I am trying to boot the redboot with the floppy, there appears some
dots(.) while the floppy LED is glowing. then after some time it just
stops. Nothing is appearing like redboot prompt. I assume the booting
fails in the middle. It's not getting the stage of redboot prompt. By the
way I am copying the redboot.bin image in the install tree by the followin
g command
dd conv=sync if=redboot.bin of=/dev/fd0
I am developing my platform port on a I386-pc with mandrake9.0 linux. Did
I go wrong anywhere in the whole procedure? Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
sivakamesh
