[Foresight-distro] Re: Foresight GNOME Edition 2.0 Alpha 4 installation

[Heikki Pesonen]

I used my Mandriva Flash USB to edit Alpha4's menu.lst.

Foresight's /boot is:

The text generated by the installer for Alpha4 is:
..........................................................................
# 2.6.23.14-0.0.1.smp.gcc4.1.x86_64
title 2.6.23.14-0.0.1.smp.gcc4.1.x86_64
    kernel  quiet vga=0x317 splash ro root=LABEL=/
    initrd

I have Mandriva 2008 on the hard disk and used it's menu.list as a model to
*Alpha4's menu.lst*:
..............................................................................
# 2.6.23.14-0.0.1.smp.gcc4.1.x86_64

Unfortunately Alpha4 still do not start. While booting:
"Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format"

I also added parts of Mandriva's menu.lst so Mandriva starts O.K.
