[Etherboot-developers] Booting a LILO directly from Etherboot

[William H. F. <wil...@sb...>]

I am using Etherboot on a tiny scratch drive (IDE2, master).  Interestingly,
the BIOS standard is not to boot twice from the same class of device
(HD->ROM->removable,etc) is OK, but HD->HD is not.  So in order to do the
local boot, I modified the sources to boot the Linux disk themselves.
However, I get the 'L' followed by about 256 error 99s.  I am investigating
why this happens and thought I would ask the group if anyone had knowledge
of this.  I'm new here and hate to rush in with a posted question.  If I
have committed a foopah, I apologize in advance.

Cheers
