[coLinux-users] debian sarge installer in colinux

[peter g. <plu...@bi...>]

i used the extracted and decompressed initrd from root.img of the rc1
installer as cobd1 with root=cobd1

cobd0 was my new blank image

as a first step i switched to the supplied virtual terminal formatted and
mounted the cobd on /target and cd'd to /target to stop it unmounting it

with /target forced to stay mounted the paritioner will fail to start and
you will be dumped at the menu

from here select install the base system

the stubborn thing will try to star the partitioner a copuple more times
then start installing

i haven't yet tried to finish the install due to the download time for the
base system (and the fact its near 3am here)
