problems installing



Hi,

trying to get 5.99.8 installed on my O2. The 1st problem i had was disklabel would only show me as having a 35MB disk. dd'ing the disk fixed that problem, not sure if it was my setup or whether disklabel will not work if irix is all ready on the disk.

I then managed to get sysinst to install the system and all was well. rebooted and went back into the prom set the environment variables up and typed boot. The bootstrap comes up but fails to find the kernel.

all info bellow.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Mark
