Having some trouble installing PEANUT linux from SCSI CD-ROM . My machine has a 90MHZ Pentium with 128 mb ram, a SCSI CD and a SCSI Hard Drive. Here's what's happening: I boot up the machine using a dos boot diskette, so that it recognizes my cd rom (Which I burned using the ISO file). Start Linux up by using ram.bat and then it boots into linux, I get to the point where I've got the green linux logo at the top. Then I mount the SCSI cd rom by using: mount /dev/scd0 /DOS Then I type setup And I already have my hard drive configured with /dev/sda1 as the linux partition and /dev/sda2 as the linux swap partition. So i go into the MAIN setup option, and when it gets to the point where it is looking for the peanut.bz2 file i see a small error message at the bottom of the screen that says cannot find file /tmp/cd or something like that. Sometimes I'll get an error saying it can't find the peanut.bz2 file in the /DOS location, but I know its there because i can cd and ls and view my cdrom fine. so I type in stage1 at the # because I know the cdrom is mounted and peanut.bz2 is there .... and I go through the installation prompts, and it starts the extraction process, but the bar doesnt move and then i start getting errors flying by like "cannot find file, cannot change owner, etc etc ... " like it cannot find the peanut file or it doesn't have permissions to write to my scsi drive or something !! ... but in other words, its not working !!! any help on this extremely frustrating matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! -Chris

Hi, maybe change the permissions of the /DOS folder so all are allowed to read/write/exec by doing chmod 777 /DOS ? <-- This is propably not going to help. But maybe you don't have bzip2 installed ? Or maybe try 'adduser *user* cdrom' (replace *user* with your username) to add the regular user to the cdrom group. Good luck, Solo
