[2.1.86, glibc, gcc 2.8 - no other problems]
In playing, I just noticed my rdev makes whatever zImage unbootable. The version I have is from util-linux-2.7.1, dated around March, 1992 ! <eek!>.
Strangely enough, though, if I use rdev to examine a working zImage, it displays the correct information (so therefore, the OFFSET is still correct, .. right? )
But regardless of what function I use of rdev (video mode, read-only flag, root device), it renders the image unbootable (stopping at "Linux .....\n") [after the carriage return]
Has anyone seen this behavior before? And if so, any suggetions? Tia!
