Re: brltty and Redhat floppies

[Cheryl Homiak <chomiak chartermi net>]

Hadn't thought of that because dos rawrite usually would complain about that but
dd doesn't.
Remember, though, that my problem is occurring on the myboot.img floppy, not the
ramdisk. Of course, part of this could be due to the need for dd as part of the
command line at boot, if indeed this is needed for the ramdisk, but it would
have to be the .img file that is too big, which I imagine would explain the
kernel image not being found.
Here are the sizes of the redhat 7.2 and 7.3 boot.img, myboot.img and initrd.gz
files.

all of the boot.img and myboot.img files purport to be 1474560 bytes.
The initrd.gz for 7.2 is 996136 bytes.
the initrd.gz for 7.3 is 780745 bytes.
So the initrd.gz is actually smaller for 7.3.


the initrd for 7.3 is 780745 bytes.
