[Etherboot-developers] testing from pcmcia flash card in place of floppy

[Eno C. <Eno...@Mi...>]

We have a custom pc with a pcmcia flash card and no floppy. The flash card
appears to the computer as hard drive d: To test the etherboot, I wrote the
driver and the boot to a floppy on another computer, copied the first 64k
from the floppy to the flash card and started testing.

The floppy boots fine ... on floppy equipped machines which made me think
this would be easy. But ...

The flash has a problem. The first sector from the flash gets read in and
executed ok. But the code that comes from the flash attempts to read the
rest of the loader from floppy. Looking at the source, it seems clear, the
boot sector code just assumes it comes from diskette on drive a and that it
should get the rest of the code from the same place.

Can anyone suggest how I can get past this problem?
