Dear NetBSD users.
I have a problem to upgrade my NetBSD from ver 1.0 to ver 1.1
I've installed NetBSD 1.0 to 1.2 GB SCSI hard disk drive (sd0),
with partition table like this :
400 MB used for MSDOS partition (Drive C:)
400 MB used for MSDOS partition (Drive D:)
400 MB used for NetBSD partition
I've tried to upgrade my NetBSD as described in Installation
document (upgrading part).
- First I boot my PC with kcadp11.fs boot image.
- And inserted the upgrade image floppy upgr11.fs.
- Answering yes (y) to process the upgrading procedure.
- Answering no (n) at the question to upgrade file system
to new file system format. ( I think to do later )
At the time the upgrading script wants to mount the hard disk (sd0),
it always fail with the error message like this:
---------------------------------------------
:
Mounting root partition on /mnt ...
sd0(aic0:0:0): timed out
sd0(aic0:0:0): timed out AGAIN
ffs:/dev/sd0a on /mnt: input/output error
FATAL ERROR : MOUNT FAILED
:
---------------------------------------------
It seems that the program doesn't recognize my SCSI HDD.
Actualy I only have 1 SCSI HDD (sd0).
Please, let me know how to resolve this problem. I realy
want to upgrade (not to reinstall) my NetBSD1.0
Many thanks to NetBSD-User who spent the time to answer
my question.
