| Installation Notice |
|
For every installation method, in general,
all of the processes are implemented through to completion.
However, once in a while, GRUB may hang with the error
message " Disk Error" displayed upon the restart
after the installation. The current version of GRUB
cannot be used as a bootselector for this machine. Instead,
introducing LILO enables the boot from HDD or building
of the dual-boot environment w/Windows.
|
| Workaround |
|
| To avoid the above-mentioned problem,
please perform the following install steps: |
1. Boot from the "Install CD"in
the usual manner: install/install_acp.
And then, go through the following procedures:
Recognize PC Card Slot --> Select Language -->
Obtain License
|
2. In the "Install Method"window,
select "Standard Installation", not "Turbo
Installation", and then follow the menus displayed
to complete
settings. |
|
3. When reaching "Set Bootloader"
window, click "Set Details"tab and uncheck
the "Use GRUB for Bootloader" box. Make
sure the "Use LBA32 Mode"item has been checked.
|
4. Most of other items are auto-set except
"Set Monitor"; select "Generic LCD Display"for
manufacturer, and "LCD Panel 1024x768"for
modelname.
For "Set X" , since Intel's built-in chipset
is auto-selected, all you have to do is test it. This
completes preparations for the installation. |
5. For the installation, use the "CD1/CD2/Companion
CD". When the "Security Setting"and "Bootdisk
Creation"complete, the system is
automatically restarted. Make sure the system is startable
by LILO.
|
| Note: If the installation has already
been completed, the re-installation can be skipped;
just follow either of the procedures below: |
Procedure A
(Using Boot FD) |
|
|
1. If you have selected "Standard
Installation"(see Workaround-2 above), and also,
created the bootdisk during "Create Bootdisk"step
(see Workaround-5 above), start the system using this
bootdisk and login as root.
Note: For the bootdisk above, a bootable USB FDD is
necessary.
|
2. Open-in the terminal and issue the
following command:
# /sbin/lilo -v
Since "/etc/lilo.conf/etc/lilo.conf"has been
set in compliance with the system, no need to specify
any value, even the installation was done by specifying
GRUB for bootloader. |
| 3. Make sure no error message is displayed
and restart the system. Also, make sure the system is
correctly started. |
| Procedure
B (Using Install CD with Rescue System ) |
|
1. Insert "Install CD1" into
the CD (DVD) drive and boot it. Select "Rescue
System"when a menu is displayed.
|
|
2. In the usual installation manner,
recognize the PC card slot and select the language;
if booted from Rescue System, a text window will be
displayed. Consequently, select "jp1-6"
for the keyboard type and "Local CD-ROM",
the rescue method, and give an appropriate value to
the "Network Settings" that comes next.
Note; For "Network Settings" , if the value
is unknown, set "DHCP" .
|
| 3. In the "Rescue Mode"that
comes next, select "Mount Existing System".
And, "/(root)"partition will be automatically
found; select OK when asked "To mount /mnt/sysimage?"
. |
| 4. After the "Rescue Mode"menu
is modified, another "Shell on Mounted Root"menu
appears; select this menu. |
5. When a shell prompt appears, issue
the following command to mount a filesystem other than
/(root):
# /bin/mount -a
Note: If the "/boot"has not been divided,
skip the steps 5 above and 7 below. |
6. Issue the following Lilo command to
change the bootloader from GRUB
to LILO:
# /bin/mount -a
|
|
7. Release the mounting (see 5 above),
exit the shell and return to the "Rescue"menu
by:
# /bin/umount -a
# exit
|
| 8. Select "Exit"and restart
the system. And then, make sure the system is startable
by LILO. |
