make_net_recovery cd image won't work

[Richard Crump]

Hi,

I have created a cd from a make_net_recovery archive. I have created an HFS filesystem, added the image to it, copied the filesystem and added a lif etc. cdrecord records the cd noproblem and even a lifls of the fs_image is fine.

When I try to boot from the cd I get ENTRY_TEST not found errors and the front panel says WARN A008.

Any ideas?
Richard

Hi Richard,

Take a look at the thread below ,

http://us-support.external.hp.com/cki/bin/doc.pl/sid=2e2880dc0d2ef054a6/screen=ckiDisplayDocument?docId=200000050964288

WARM A008 Refers to not finding a bootable device. Refer to the link below for more info on error codes. Seems like the boot CD is non-bootable,

All,

Just tried booting on a different box and all works fine. Looks like a dodgy CDROM on the box giving the errors.

Thanks for your help.
