morphos 2.1 install efika

[TheMagicM]

I dont know how someone can mess up typing the following at a OF prompt:

boot scsi:0 morphos-2.1-efikainstall.img


I did that and it started loading..about a minute later I'm at the iWizard and installing 2.1.  works here :-?

zyphoid:
OK, JUST WONDERING, MAYBE YOU ARE HAVING OTHER ISSUES, "DUDE".
Pipe down on the all caps kid.


painkiller:
your idea is plausible.. i was thinking hardware issue also, assuming the problem wasnt user related.

@lanoakley:

yes, you have to copy the file to a USB stick.

I have a wireless kb + mouse combo which takes up 1 usb slot, then I'm using a 8gig USB stick, no hub.

[TheMagicM]

yea I agree.



@zyphoid:
I havent tried this just yet so I dont know if it will work.  

Plug in your USB kb in one USB slot on the EFIKA, plug in the USB stick in the other.
hit ESC to get to an OF prompt.
type in the usual stuff to boot the install image.
As soon as you hit enter, remove the USB keyboard and plug in the USB mouse.
I dont believe I typed in ANYTHING after I got to iWizard, just point and click through it.

cool, I didnt know that...  I think zyphoid has some good tips..hopefully this gets it working for him.
