I'm trying to make my own gentoo bootcd, by it doesn't boot, this is an screenshot taken in vmware:
[img:2eaa99dd78]http://blubber.student.utwente.nl/vmware.png[/img:2eaa99dd78]
This is my isolinux.cfg:
| Code: |
default gentoo
timeout 300
prompt 1
display boot.msg
F1 boot.msg
F2 help.msg
label gentoo
kernel kernel
append initrd=initrd acpi=off root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc
|
What am I doing wrong?

I've got it booting, but I wan't to create a filesystem that uses a loopback file on the CD, just like je gentoo CD. In my init script I did the same thing as the gentoo boot CD:
| Code: |
mknod /dev/loop0 b 7 0
losetup /dev/loop0 /newroot/mnt/cdrom/fs.loop
mount -o ro -t ext2 /dev/loop0 /newroot/mnt/loop
|
But when booting linux complains that there is no /dev/loop0:
losetup: /dev/loop0: No such device or address
But loop0 is just made... |
