I only recently discovered Crux, while looking for a small distro to use as
the basis of a virtual appliance. I downloaded the ISO, created a VM, and
followed the directions in the handbook to install. For some crazy reason,
I decided to give JFS a try as my root file system. Unfortunately, my disk
won't boot. I can boot from the ISO and mount the disk just fine, but the
VM's Phoenix BIOS skips over the disk and goes straight to PXE.
Here's my lilo.conf:
#
# /etc/lilo.conf: lilo(8) configuration, see lilo.conf(5)
#
lba32
install=text
boot=/dev/sda
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label=CRUX
root=/dev/sda1
read-only
append="quiet"
# End of file
Here's my fstab:
#
# /etc/fstab: static file system information
#
# <file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump>
<pass>
/dev/sda1 / jfs defaults 1 1
