When I have the first cd in the cdrom drive on boot of the titan, I receive the following error: Launching auto boot image: I\Boot\bootia64 elilo.c (line 98): cannot find a loader for H? <<ERROR>> Trying failsafe kernel once elilo.c(line 98): cannot find a loader for vmlinux <<ERROR>> The only way to start the install is by using the efi shell to access the cd and typing elilo.efi
Bill, have we seen this problem before?
There was a bug in the bootloader in regards to arguments passed to it, but that seems to imply something else was wrong.
(arch fixed) We need to reproduce this inhouse.
So what's the status of this, Bill? Can I help in any way?
Try reproducing this on the compaq box with the current tree.
I was able to reproduce this when the path was set wrong...that may be the cause of the whole problem.
Yup, it appeared the firmware was only setting the path to *one* of the MS-DOS partitions. Seems like a firmware bug.
There is also a current elilo problem where, when invoked from a boot entry, it can fail if there is (for instance) a floppy in the drive.
If it's the elilo problem, it's a dup of 42222; the path problem would have to be a firmware bug, though.
