So i have followed the interactive instructions but I keep getting this error when I try to mount the hda (primary master fat32 drive) I am trying to load my image off of a CD but I can't seem to get it to work...

I would be greatfull for any help

THanks

I got that message when I accidently did the first: mount command and specified the HDD address rather than the CD's address.

You first mount the CD, then the instructions will ask you for the HDD address.

mkdir /cdrom
mount -o ro -t iso9660 /dev/hd? /cdrom

This will mount a CD. There is no need for a FAT32 hard drive if you are loading an image from CD. The file will be referenced with /cdrom/<backup filename> in the mfsrestore command.

thanks for your help guys it worked...now my issue is when i booted it up it's says I only have 6 hours (best) with my 160GB drive....

Did you use -X in the mfsrestore command? If not, put the drive back in the PC and use mfsadd -x /dev/hd? to expand the drive from the original image size to use the full drive.
