Hello, as a happy CRUX/coLinux User I was some kind of disappointed when I tried to install CRUX 2.4 under colinux. In the past everything worked like a charm but the new CD ROM auto detection mechanism seems to have problems with the colinux block devices named /dev/cobdX. After hours of digging in the init script I became aware of some things: - It would be very helpful to implement a check, if any CRUX CD ROM was found. At the moment the script simply runs into errors over errors if the CD detection does not find anyting. - The init script should include any /dev/cobdX device into the list of available mount points. I got around this by simply adding the following line: CDROM_DEVICES="$CDROM_DEVICES cobd0 cobd1 cobd2 cobd3 cobd4" - The colinux boot process relies on an external kernel. Sadly this has no squashfs support implemented by default. The start process tries to mount the squash filesystem from the CD but this fails and again the script lacks of a intelligent error handling. A simple message about the error would help very much. After everything was in place I finally was able to boot CRUX 2.4 under coLinux - happy again. Keep up the good work.
