Aros Laptop
« on: January 30, 2004, 11:30:39 AM »
Hi

I have a old laptop just lying around here, and I wanna give it a new life with AROS. Since it has no CDROM (yeah, I have a parallel CDROM unit, but NO WAY to install AROS CD FROM IT), I have tried the floppey version available to download in the official aors page.

I boot, but when It gets the first shell screen, it displays somewhat like

assign: error
run: error
execute: error

Error or not found, I dont remember at all.

Another strange bit is taht I can not bootup the floppy with the HD recongnised by bios, or it will not bott up at all

What I can do here?

Regards

Well, its a quite old laptop, but, hey, install something fun on it or trash it directly. :-P
