[9fans] Custom install disk problem

[Skip Tavakkolian]

I've built a new installation floppy (/sys/lib/pcdist/disk) that includes
the G400 vga driver; During the installation, I see the following error
when the reamfs
step is performed:

echo: write error: xterm: Error 50, errno 1: Too big
/srv/log: rc: can't open

Any ideas?

I've found a helpful explanation by Russ in the archives.

Hi,

	If you are using the G400 driver I wrote to build your custom install disk,
I suggest you to download the latest sources from
http://mapage.noos.fr/philippe.anel
because these ones add support to G200, 32 bits and 2D accel.
There are still some bugs I'll fix later, but still are quite usable.

The problem I had was unrelated to the G400 driver, as the driver works
good enough to perform the install. FYI, I still can't see the cursor,
although I've not played with the settings yet. Thanks

There are those who have, and those who will.

(Sorry, did't mean to send it to the world).

Hi,

I think the latest sources fix the "cursor problem".
Then, if you happen to test them, I'll welcome any
comment.

    Philippe,
