Anyone else had the problem where the OS boots ok but it can’t find the rest of its files in the FAT16 partition to load the rest of itself?
Yep. I had the same problems.
And further more my MBR was destroyed and occupied by GRUB!
I fixed it this way by burning the content of the zip file on a cd. Then I booted from floppy and entered /bootdevice=/dev/cd2 as kernel parameter and it
worked.
/dev/cd2 – master cdrom on 2nd controller channel
I can’t get it to boot. It trys to but says “SkyOS V3….boot file not found.” I havn’t been able to figure this one out.
Whats the purpose of skyOS? Whats the main selling point?
