Boot a PC104 from Sandisk Compact Flash
by Michael Marriott 04 Sep '02

04 Sep '02

I am trying to get my PC104 to boot from 256 SanDisk Compact Flash Card. I have a 7GB HDD connected loaded with Redhat 7.2. I can boot from the HDD and CDROM. The HDD is /dev/hd0 the CF is /dev/hd1 I tried to build a Linux file system on the CF by mounting it at /mnt/CF and transferring all the appropriate files and directories. I guesse that's OK... I am using GRUB to choose between HDD or CF boot. I copied /boot/grub/grub.conf to /mnt/cf/boot/grub and edited appropriately Currently the PC104 boots from flash (/dev/hdc1) (but the GRUB choices only come up if the HDD is connected). The crash comes when init tries to mount /hdc1. I don't know why the system mounts / on /dev/hda4 when this is not what I setup in /etc/fstab My current thinking is that I cannot simply copy initrd to my new "root file system" because this has information in it about where to find the root file system. Is this correct? Can anyone shed some light on what I am doing wrong?? Michael Marriott
