Exact, K-H! The installer-kernel (perfect mirror of the mu-kernel) is
an absurd. Another kernel (coming from other major distribution
installer disks: Debian, Redhat, etc.), inclusive of SCSI support,
is OK, with few notes:
1) remove "no387" from loadlin.cfg (companion of install.bat)
2) check if this installer-kernel support UMSDOS file-system
initial-ramdisk and ramdisk in general. Slackware needed?
Moreover, this precompiled kernels are considerably bigger of
muLinux kernel: DOSTOOLS.zip grow :(
Any way, put this kernel in the scratch dir, between muLinux images,
and rename it "mulinuz". Then:
c:> loadlin mulinuz initrd=ROOT.gz INFO=dosinstall
( no install.bat here, or You replace "mulinuz"!)
Ciao,
Michele
