[Lenir S. <fla...@ya...>]

Guys, i get the following error when i run makeimage.sh after i do the grub part, also im having  to use /dev/loop/0 instead of /dev/loop:

localhost trunk # ./makeimage.sh 973


This script will create a bootable AstLinux image from the
development environment in this directory. Every care has been
taken to prevent damage to your host operating system, house, etc.
HOWEVER, IT IS ALWAYS POSSIBLE FOR SOMETHING TO GO WRONG. I CAN
NOT GUARANTEE THAT THIS SCRIPT WILL NOT DESTROY YOUR MACHINE OR
ANY DATA ON IT


Press enter to continue, or CTRL+C to exit

Would you like me to aggresively strip everything in your image?
This can save as much as 10mb.
Please answer yes or no
Strip: no
Stripping declined

You will need to write down the number of cylinders, heads, and
sectors for fdisk.  Bad things happen if you mess this up!

I will create a 'flat' hard disk image with
  cyl=1976
  heads=16
  sectors per track=63
  total sectors=1991808
  total size=972.56 megabytes

Writing: [] Done.

I wrote 1019805696 bytes to disk.img.

The following line should appear in your bochsrc:
  ata0-master: type=disk, path="disk.img", mode=flat, cylinders=1976, heads=16, spt=63

You need to run fdisk manually to partition the image.
Please write down or memorize the following instructions:

press 'x' - extra functionality
press 'h' fill in heads - probably 16
press 's' fill in sectors - probably 63
press 'c' fill in cylinders - this changes
press 'r' return to main menu
press 'n' to add new partition
press 'p' to choose primary partition
press '1' to set partition number
press Enter keys to choose default value of First Cylinder parameter.
press Enter keys to choose default value of Last Cylinder parameter.
press 'w' to write partition table and exit

Press enter when you are ready

until you decide to write them. After that, of course, the previous
content won't be recoverable.

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 1976.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
   (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)
