Hello again, tahnks to Boris and Markus for the '-n' option of echo. :-) But here is my next problem. Booting from net and hda1 works fine with a file made by mknbi (linux/blkdev). Trying to boot from the local fd0 or fd1 failed. I made the blkdev file with 'mknbi -x lieschen' within the mknbi-blkdev directory. Outputsize was 2kbyte. The essential part of /etc/bootptab looks like the next lines: **** :T192="X-Terminal:::/tftpboot/bootfiles/vmlinuz.nb.ne2000::0i0p":\ :T205="NT GwDG:::/tftpboot/bootfiles/hda1:c8136abd84a741a774f8a3fda4e30203:1i0p:":\ :T206="Diskette (A):::/tftpboot/bootfiles/fd0:c8136abd84a741a774f8a3fda4e30203:1i0p":\ **** A symbolic link from hda1, fd0 and fd1 to the blkdev (lieschen) file exists.
