The Max & Parris faulty PS2 Tool tread

thanks for the hint. I wanted to try it exactly as you did. But I cannot unmount /usr

How do I boot into "tool single" ?

 

Type "tool single" at the LILO: prompt

 

I made a long break. powered up the TOOL for the first time in this year. I Tried to boot "tool single", but it returns only

 

Back from Japan and straight to the faulty Tool. Again, I wish that Germany were closer. I'd nip around and have a look at the unit.

Anyone got any thoughts on the matter?

 

Type it at the LILO prompt, just after the POST screen.
I still have a spare Tool motherboard waiting Max...

 

"tool" is which kernel to boot, and "single" is an option to that kernel. If it's anything like a normal LILO you should get a list of avilable kernels if you press TAB. Unfortunately I'm not lucky enough to have a Tool to test with.

 

Hi! i am still alive - sorry to anyone who has tried contating me thru here - i just got so busy with other stuff that this nobby (and others) just slipped my mind!

i have a couple of Tool's left in bits - so if you do need any bit in particular to fix this up just gimme a shout - i will login here and check my PM - i promise

cheers

Holy cow it's Mattcp! Howdy mate! MDMX sold the faulty unit to another member. It appears to be the main motherboard (PS2 side) which has developed a fault. If you had one of those large buggers hanging around I am certain he would be delighted to take it off your hands. Let me know via PM and I shall forward on, unless he of course spots this himself! ;-)
