Getting PegII to boot from CD
« on: August 30, 2006, 07:05:56 PM »
I've just got my PegII and am setting it all up. I'm trying to get it to boot from the MorphOS 1.4.5 CD and not having much luck. When I type in "boot /pci/ide/cdrom boot.img" it hangs on a message saying "Quark/OpenFirmware".

If I type "ls /pci/ide/cdrom" then it lists the contents of the CD. I have tried another CD-ROM and another IDE cable. I don't know what else I can try :-(

I've just found a posting saying that this can happen if the graphics card is unsupported. I'm using a Radeon 8500, which I was told is supported. I tried it with my Voodoo 3000 from my A1200, and it did the same thing.

@Kronos
Yes I have tried cold booting with the CD in the drive.

@Crumb
I have tried two different 80 wire cables. I have tried an AGP Radeon 8500 and a PCI Voodoo 3000.

No, I have a PS/2 keyboard and mouse connected, and the video cable in the graphics card. Nothing else is connected.

@itix
I'll have a look for a serial cable. Do I just point a terminal emulator to the COM device  of the serial port and I will start seeing kernel debug output?

@CLS2086
When it tries to boot it says 'ISO-9660 filesystem: System-ID "MorphOS"'. Is that 1.4.5???
I have 1 stick of 512MB PC2100 DDR. I have tried it in both slots.
I have tried the Voodoo on the first PCI slot with nothing on any other slots.
Nothing is connected to the USB ports.
I have tried the CD-ROM and HDD set to master on their own channels.
There probably is something on the drive. I was planning to format it once I had booted MOS. Does it matter if there's something on there?

If I ls /pci/ide/cdrom I can see files on the disc. Where can I download an ISO to burn a new disc? And how do I reset the EPROM?

So what do you think? Broken CD? Is there somewhere I can download an ISO image to burn to CD?

I have registered, but they are not processing registrations until 18th Sept :roll:

I have "obtained" a logon for the download area and got the ISO. I'm just burning it now and will try again.

Ok I've tried a new MOS CD, but have got the same problem. I'm going to get a serial cable tomorrow and see if there is any useful debug output.

Well I got up early this morning and tried an NEC CDRW/DVD combo drive, and it works! I'm now in the process of installing MOS :-D Thanks for all your help everyone.

@CLS2086
Actually, the same drive worked fine on my A1200 before I changed it for a SCSI one. Weird huh!

@itix
Yes I'm very relieved the motherboard is ok. I am using 80 way cables. In fact it is the same cable I used with the other drive.

Do you think the MOS/Genesi devs would want to know about this?
