I am using isolinux to load the floppy firewall project. I have a bootable
floppy and the configuration works well.
I have managed to get isolinux to load the operating system but when it comes
time to mount (something?) in response to the root=??? part of the append
line the operation stops and I land in a shell without having loaded any of
the firewall files to the ram disk. All of the system files have loaded.
When I boot off floppy, all files are in the root directory of the floppy and
the append line contains root=/dev/fd0U1680 (oversize floppy) and all is
well. With isolinux, all the files are in the /isolinux with the operating
system.
What do I use for the root= part of the append line?
Thanks!
