Floppy boot disk with Redhat Advanced Server 3.2Why is Redhat's EXT3 incompatible with Mandrake On Sun, 06 Feb 2005 15:10:52 -0500, General Schvantzkoph mumbled something like this: I'm not sure about Redhat EXT3 and Mandrake being... Dear experts, In previous versions of Linux, I was able to create a floppy boot disk. But, when installing Redhat 3.2 Advanced Server, I was not prompted to create a boot disk. Is it possible to create one with this version of Redhat? I tried to use: mkbootdisk but it ran out of space. cdlib-modules ls gives: 2.4.21-15.EL
mkbootdisk --device dev-fd0 2.4.21-15.EL Insert a disk indev-fd0. Any information on the disk will be lost. cp: writing `-tmp-mkbootdisk.is4a3q-initrd.img': No space left on device cat: write error: No space left on device cat: write error: No space left on device 20+0 records in 20+0 records out ls -lamnt-floppy total 1435 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 512 Dec 31 1968 plus 1 . drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Apr 11 15:33 .. -rwxr-xr-x 1 root Unbreastled 1root 0 Apr 11 18:49 boot.msg -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 214528 Apr 11 18:49 initrd.img -r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 7856 Apr 11 18:49 ldlinux.sys -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Apr 11 18:49 syslinux.cfg -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1241318 Apr 22 2004 vmlinuz - all space used up on the floppy. Is it possible to create a boot disk for AS 3.2? Did I just get the syntax wrong? If not possible, what do use for emergency booting?
Thanks
