Mello,
Join the club, I've been trying to get this to work for over a week without
much success or help :(
the information you are getting is exactly like mine except for an extra
warning...
INFO: code=0x4 // File found
INFO: code=0x4 // File found
INFO: code=0x4 // File found
WARNING: code=0x05 // Unable to reset disk controller
ERROR: code=0x1 // Unknown file system
ERROR: code=0xD // Failed to read data from storage
ERROR: code=0xB // Cannot read record information
INFO: code=0x37 // Trying backup image file
ERROR: code=0x1 // Unknown file system
ERROR: code=0x3 // Couldn't read root directory sector
ERROR: code=0x8 // Failed to load BIN image
if you get any further please let me know as I am about to give up as I
can't see any solution; like wise if I manage to get it working then I'll
let you know.
make sure that you have the following files on your FDD/HDD:
eboot.bix, splash.bmx, boot.ini
the bios loader will only build in release mode. (build -c, sysgen) the file
bldr should then be in your _FLATRELEASEDIR which you can transfer to your
setup disk and then use mkdisk as directed in the msdn documentation.
building the biosloader is one thing modifying it is another! if you change
more than a couple of lines it will crash either just after or during the
display of Microsoft Windows CE Boot Loader version 2.2....
hope this helps :) I know its not much but at least I can save you a week of
pain :-)
Regards...
