Kernel 2.0.40: Loading...... bootloader boot loop
Hi, On a 486, I am booting linux 2.0.40 from a floppy but wonder if I have done something wrong in the building of the kernel image + bootloader:
zImage has been written to the disk.
I get the Loading...... (presubably from linux/boot/head.S"
Then the computer reboots itself straight after the last "." (i.e. I don't get the "Uncompressing Linux" message (from arch/i386/boot/compressed)
What could be the most likely reasons for the reboot?
I made the Kernel with
make menuconfig (choose some options....)
make dep ; make clean
make zdisk (kernel gets built then the floppy disk goes chug chug for a while)
Thanks in advance...
