Question: problem to boot from PCMCIA scsi disk 

Forum: Installing Linux using or onto a PCMCIA device

From: Marcel van Heemst vanheemst

I have installed linux on a PCMCIA scsi disk. But after installation i can't boot from this disk because linux loads his pcmcia driver later. So i will make a mkinitrd image to have pcmcia support at boottime. Can somebody tell me how i can make this image?

See 'man pcinitrd' and the PCMCIA-HOWTO Re: Question: problem to boot from PCMCIA scsi disk (Marcel van Heemst) Date: 2000, Feb 03 From: David Hinds <dhinds@pcmcia.sourceforge.org>

For PCMCIA initrd images, there is a special version of mkinitrd, called pcinitrd, that does most of the work for you. There is also a section in the PCMCIA-HOWTO specifically about this. -- Dave
