I tried magic f-drive
everything seemed cool except for when it went to reboot.
it starts up and says it can't create some files, then says something like:
kernal panic: init failed
i can unrar the distro file back to my e, but i need to get this on f, i don't have any space for all my saves etc on my e, i had to transfer my tdata and udata.
can i restore this ? i got the feeling it is no...
where did i fail ?
did i kill my gentoox install ?
ok well i seem to have fixed it.
I renamed all of my files on e: that had "old" and took out the old, and changed the names of the other files so they are ***.broke
and then i changed my linuxboot.cfg file too this:
append init=/linuxrc root=/dev/ram0 kbd-reset video=xbox:800x600,nohwcursor,hoc=0mvoc=0
this is what i found when i searched the forums for linuxboot.cfg
the screen size is kinda messed up when its starting up, i can't see the green ok's, and when i move my onscreen keyboard around its kinda wierd...
i had to re-set my fonts in xfce...
I'm going to compare the linuxboot.cfg with the one magic was using to transfer over rootfs to my f:
is there a way to get back my old one, or get it as close too it as it should be?
I feel a bit uneasy, but everything else seems fine...
i still have to find out how to magic f-drive, but i feel better knowing i did not screw up that bad...
as far as i know
