I wanted to build a system (486 UMC chipset, 8 MB (yet), 64MB root fs, 32 MB swap, rest (approx. 970 MB) for /usr - there may be wiser partitionings but for a first try I thought so). The disktab entry speaks for itself: m2266s|M2266S|M2266S-512|FUJITSU M2266S-512 Winchester:\ :dt=SCSI:ty=winchester:se#512:nt#15:ns#82:nc#1705:\ :pa#127920:oa#0:ta=4.2BSD:ba#4096:fa#512:\ :pb#63960:ob#127920:tb=swap:\ ->> :pc#2097150:oc#0:\ | :ph#1905270:oh#191880:th=4.2BSD:bh#4096:fh#512 | | ->> This number is not what is maximally available, but it's close to. I booted the fixit floppy and followed Chris's instructions (FAQ) with the exception that I first did a mknod as0h b 4 7 mknod ras0h c 13 7 and mounted /dev/as0a /mnt and /dev/as0h /mnt1 Then I cpio'ed the / /bin /sbin stuff to /mnt and the /usr stuff into the /mnt1 directory, as I'm expecting to have a separate /usr filesystem. Now when I boot the first time from hard disk I get cyl 0 0 hd 0 sect 0 dev 4 unit 0 off 0 386BSD Release 0.1 by William and Lynne Jolitz.

Sometimes I still got key response. Same appearance when I tried the first time without having an extra /usr fs. What is wrong, what am I missing? Is it the big swap? Is it the separate /usr partition? In any case, here is my disklabel entry: # /dev/ras0d: type: SCSI disk: m2266s label: flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 82 tracks/cylinder: 15 sectors/cylinder: 1230 cylinders: 1705 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # milliseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds drivedata: 0 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg] a: 127920 0 4.2BSD 512 4096 16 # (Cyl. 0 - 103) b: 63960 127920 swap # (Cyl. 104 - 155) c: 2097150 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 1704) h: 1905270 191880 4.2BSD 512 4096 16 # (Cyl. 156 - 1704) -------- -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- kuku@acds.physik.rwth-aachen.de *** Error code 1 Stop.
