I could not get BL2 to boot after I copied its files to a partition
formatted using puppy linux gparted (and changed fstab to /dev/hda5).
PQMagic 8 for DOS finds error #108.
The error message occurred when e2fsck did not work on the newer type of
ext2 file system. It said to get a newer e2fsck. Should I try one from
Slackware 11?
First I tried to reformat to older ext2. Rather than boot with BL2 floppy
to reformat, I tried mke2fs running it from puppy linux and was told sda5
is not a block special device and should I go ahead anyway. ?????
/dev/hda5 - no such device. Puppy calls it sda not hda.
