Re: NetBSD 3.0.1 Installer on A1200

[Matthias Muench <djbase%gmx.de@localhost>]

I really don't get it. I installed NetBSD on an A3000 without  
problems but this A1200 makes me mad.

I have a 20 GB HDD with 4 Partitions connected to internal IDE Port:

IDH0 - AmigaOS
IDH1 - root
IDH2 - swap
IDH3 - usr

After loading the kernel it writes:

no file system for wd0 (dev 0x1100)
cannot mount root, error = 79
root device (default wd0a):

Ok, wd0a would be my AmigaOS Partition so I changed it to wd0b and  
the rest like in the install guide is written. But I always get an  
error when he tries to mount the partitions afte the network  
configuration.

Either he writes

exec: mount_ffs -o async /dev/wd0a /mnt
mount_ffs: /dev/wd0a on /mnt: incorrect super block

or

exec: mount_ffs -o async /dev/wd0b /mnt
mount_ffs: /dev/wd0a on /mnt: Device busy


So anybody can help?
