I'm a Peg II User. Now I've got a Peg I, unfortunally without documentation, and no installed system. I've tried the commando from my PegII handboot boot /pci/ide/cdrom boot.img, but this didn't work. Is there a different command for booting from CD-Rom?

Secon question: The connection for the power-buttom I simply tried out, successfully. Are the other pins (loudspeaker, reset, USB, etc) at the same place as in the PegII?

Hi, DrZarkov!
The Peg2 uses an other boot.img than the Peg1, but they are
both on the CD. Just boot the correct one and it'll work...
The pins should be at the same place, but maybe who really
knows should tell you ;)

The image is called bootpeg1.img.

Unfortunally this was not the problem, I'm afraid.

If the motherboard-layout is almost the same as at the PegII, I've connected the harddisk (an old 2 GB Seagate) at IDE0, the CD-Rom at IDE1, of course with the right cable, and of course both as "master". I've used this command for booting:

boot /pci/ide/cdrom bootpeg1.img

And I get this result:
error: error while trying to load or boot


No I really don't know anymore...

I've just tried:

ls /pci/ide gives

cd@0,1 (<== when connected as slave at IDE0)
disk@0,0

so it will recognize it. The preinstalled auto-boot finds the old Linux x86 file-system on the disk and can't do of course anything with it but display a kind of roaster.

boot /pci/ide/cd@x,y bootpeg1.img


with x= 0 for primary channel and 1 for 2ndary channel
with y=0 for master and 1 for slave

only use 80 pins plate ribbons and connect the master at the end of
the ribon. The end connector which is the furthest from the middle one
must be connected to the motherboard?

Well, now it starts to boot, there really is a difference: PegII you write ../cdrom and PegI ../cd

But now it says it can't recognize the filesystem. I've tried two different CD-Roms. Maybe the hd is too slow for the Pegasos?

Booting from CD-rom was not possible, maybe the fault lies in the Morphos 1.4.2. CD, bundled with my PegII? So I've put the harddisk into my PegII, I've installed Morphos, then I've put the harddisk back into the PegI, and - It works!!

CD-Rom ist working, too! I don't know what I did wrong, but problem solved, the way doesn't count
