Description Ron Sokoloski 2000-03-14 19:23:34 UTC
I'm installing RH6.1 on a Digital 3305 machine (equivelant to a AS800
(Noritake) but the aboot program fails to write a valid boot block. Do I
need to use the text mode install and the old swriteboot command, or am I
missing something?

Please submit the contents of /etc/aboot.conf.  You should be able to boot into
rescue mode using the original boot media and get access to this file.
