Problem Description
|
|
The boot filesystem must be type EAFS
|
|
Cause
|
It is possible that the /boot divison is of type HTFS. Such a
filesystem cannot be used to boot the system; type EAFS is
required. The following
error would be observed upon bootup if division 0 of the
active parition is HTFS:
/boot not found
Stage 1 boot failure
error loading hd/boot
|
|
Solution
|
To correct the problem, boot up under the recovery diskettes and
run divvy in Inquire/Update mode. Select option 'c' to create
a new boot filesystem (a 'Y' will appear under the New FS column),
and then select the 't' option to convert it to type EAFS. Exit divvy
and install the division table.
Creating a new filesystem will destroy its previous contents, so
restore the /boot filesystem from tape after changing
the filesystem type.
