Kufeldt" Subject: Booting 1.2 with a hard drive. Comments: To: info-minix@udel.edu To: Multiple recipients of list MINIX-L Hi, I am currently setting up minix 1.2 on my IBM XT's hard drive. I have successfully partioned it so that I have three file systems and and one boot image. I have recompiled fs such that it looks to the correct partition for the root file system. Now, I have tried altering my bootblok to look to my boot partition but have had limited success. Is there any one who could briefly outline the changes needed for bootblok to function properly? note: My changes that I have done so far come from an archived message outlining the changes necessary for v1.1 . Thanks in advance. pak@ufl.edu
