FC3 Test3 on external drive - booting problem !!
Hi,
I was using Suse on my external drive and thought to give a try with fedora. I have installed fedore core 3 Test 3, and logged in through rescue mode to edit the initrd file. when i tried to
mount -o loop /tmp/initrd /tmp/a
it gives error message "could not find any device /dev/loop#".
then i checked in the /dev folder, there are no loop* files over there.
Tried to "modprobe loop", for that also i got error.
I dont have any knowledge on fedore. Can anyone help.
Cheers..Mahendra.
Got answer to my question....
It is not a image file, it is a cpio archive file... now it is working fine.. but still have problems installing..
