Subject: [9fans] Boot/install help?
Date: Mon, 6 Nov 2000 09:43:23 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3A041EFE.3A6A7F98@nbnet.nb.ca> (raw)
I'm just planning to install Plan9, but when I use the boot/install
disk, all I get is 'boot from:'. From that point the install
instructions indicate to just hit enter, but that doesn't work.
If I try 'boot from: fd0', it complains about requiring 'fd0!file'. So
what is that boot file supposed to be?
The only things I picked were: boot from 1st floppy, linksys etherfast
10/100 (auto/auto), and mouse on com1, other than the defaults. Perhaps
this floppy boot image is bad?
Thanks,
Marco
