Subject:  [VOICENWS] eCS: Extra information on test eComStation BootCD

From: "Roderick Klein" <rwkleinatmensys.nl> 

We would like to thank all the people who have so far reported there
experience with the eComStation test BootCD. However here are some extra
tips.

If you have a something that goes wrong with boot CD you can report your
experience via the BugTracker on www.ecomstation.com.

You  can will find the bugtracker option when you log in on
www.ecomstation.com.  Please remeber to tell on which SCSI card and/or
with which IDE chipset it went wrong. Which driver(s) you loaded ? Not
just that it failed or worked on an X amount of machines, we need more
information. We of course also like to hear from you when the boot was
successful. Please also test the utilities MINIlvm and PMFORMAT which can
be found in the directory \ecs\install on the CD.

If you get a trapscreen (black screen with text) when booting of the CD,
please look on the screen for the field CSLIM=. If the value is FFFFFFFF
its not useful. However if the value behind CSLIM=0000xxxx (where xxxx is
an hex decimal number), please also report this. In some cases we can
trace then in which device driver it went wrong.

When booting of CD its true you will NOT come further then a pmshell
WITHOUT desktop and with a command prompt. This is normal with this test
cd.

We have also seen people ask the question how you must burn the track to
CD. You need burn it as an ISO image. This means that you must not burn it
as a bootable CD. RSJ has the option to burn an ISO track or give the CD
burner a drive letter. You must not give the CD burner a drive letter and
then burn the ISO image to CD. Drag and drop the ISO image in the CD
record view and then burn the ISO image to CD.



And please read the documentation that you can find on the same page as
when downloading.
