hi
i get the following error when FreeBSD tries to install the files on the
root image (it says "extracting root floppy):
---8<---VT2 output---
stand/ee
[and the other cpio garbage]
gunzip: stdin: invalid compressed data - format violated
/stand/cpio: premature end of file
DEBUG: Dummy [default] close called for sd0s1 with fd of 9
--->8---
it does NOT say stand/root_squash which appears to be also in the root
image (i looked into the image with with linux gunzip and cpio)...
my hardware configuration is as follows:
ASUS VLB Motherboard w/ i486DX2-66 and 16MB RAM
miro Crystal 20SV VGA card w/ 2MB
IBM 1Serial/1Parallel card
Teles.S0 16.0 ISDN card
Gravis Ultrasound w/ 1MB and 16bit option
Adaptec AHA2842VL, BIOS version 2.0
ID0: IBM DPES1080 SCSI HD (this is /dev/sd0 with Windows95 filesystem and
the Freebsd installation tree in C:\FREEBSD on it)
ID1: IBM DORS2160 SCSI HD (there's linux in the first two partitions and
FreeBSD is supposed to be installed to the third partition)
ID2: Quantum PDS 1225 SCSI HD (another DOS vfat volume)
ID3: Quantum Lightning 540 SCSI HD (old Linux and a DOS vfat pratition on it)
ID5: Iomega ZIP 100MB, no medium in drive while installation
ID6: Toshiba XM3401TA CD-ROM, no medium in drive
btw: When the installation exits, the adaptec does not initialize after
rebooting. i get a hard error from my award bios to insert a disk into
the floppy drive. i have to hard reset, then it works again.
i checked for invalid drive geometry in fdsik, but this does not seem to
be the problem.
am i doing something wrong?
thanks in advance for your help!
