Due to a change of my internal hard disc (drive 4) on my RiscPC 600, I'm
currently re-installing the 1.1 beta-release CD. So far, I've got my
partitions set and am booting off the HD. Everything _seems_ to be working
apart from unix-fs. Trying to open either the root or /usr partitions results
in errors. I can run "MountHD4a" OK but running "OpenRoot" gives an "Internal
error" message. Running "MountHD4e" gives slightly different results with a
"Disc drive not known" error.
I've no doubt overlooked something obvious but last time everything just
worked! My old drive was a cfs540 but I'm now on a cfs850. Is the problem
likely to be associated with the 512 Mb Filecore limit? (I couldn't quite see
this myself) - I've got RiscOS about up to the limit, with the RiscBSD
partition on the end.
Unfortunately, my CD-ROM is one of the Cumanan Indigo ones and so without
unixfs I'm going to need a lot of floppies :-(.
Any help greatfully received!
