1 I have noticed that DOM's do not like dd very much. I have a feeling that
2 it has something to do with how it works with back blocks. I have found the
3 only reliable way to put files on a DOM is to tar/gzip them up and explode
4 them on it. I do not know how you would go about this with the MBR due to
5 it's special circumstances.

15 Hi, I'm using gnap tools 1.2 and I am trying to put my working overlay
16 onto a 32 meg DOM.
17 Following the instructions here,
18 http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/embedded/gnap-userguide.xml
19 I have installed the MBR, created the primary active partition
20 and then ran gnap overlay.

23 when I boot, I get Searching for Boor Record from IDE-0..Not Found
24
25 when I run
26 dd if=/home/robin/gnap/gnap-tools-1.2/mbr/mbr.bin of=/dev/hdc bs=512
27 count=1
28 I get
29 0+1 records in
30 0+1 records out
31
32 any other things I need to check?
