Is it possible to boot m0n0wall from a floppy disk? I ask because I've
just installed m0n0wall on the second hard drive of a two disk machine.
Unfortunately the crappy bios chokes and once the image is put onto the
HD it won't get past the HD auto detection. 

 

So I was wondering if it was possible to modify the freebsd boot floppy
image (boot.flp) instead. Possibly by changing /boot/loader.rc so that
it picked up mfsroot.gz from the second HD instead of the floppy. Is
this possible and does anyone know the syntax.

 

Many thanks,
