[MiNT] Mint 1.16.0 boot problems
Hello guys!
About a week ago I installed EasyMint 1.52.
Then I experimented with the Mint 1.16.0 kernel.
I switched frequently between kernel 1.15.12,
1.16.0 and my MagiC setup.
Since last Thursday a strange problem occured:
I can no longer boot the XAAES with the MINT 1.16 kernel.
Here are the messages that I get when booting
the 1.16.0 kernel:
-----------------------------------------------
Starting up the idle process (pid 0) ... done!
Reading 'u:/c/mint/1-16-0/mint.cnf' ...
1873 bytes done.
Installing BIOS keyboard table ... AKP code 1.
Loading unicode table 'u:/c/mint/1-16-0/unicode.tbl' ...
error -33
No init program specified to be started.
Starting up 'u:/c/mint/1-16-0/sh.tos' ...
error -33
Giving up, reverting to internal shell.
-----------------------------------------------
Here is my MINT.CNF:

FS_CACHE_SIZE=200
FS_VFAT=A,D,E,F,G
#FS_VFAT_LCASE=YES
#FS_WB_ENABLE=D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L,M,N,O,P,Q,R,S,T,V,W,X,Y,Z
#FS_WRITE_PROTECT=R,S
#FDC_HIDE_B=YES
# KERN_SECURITY_LEVEL= enables the appropriate security level:
# 0 - recommended for single user setups, like MultiTOS (default).
# 1 - recommended for multiuser setups, like KGMD.
# 2 - full protection, unsupported by software, thus discouraged.
#
KERN_SECURITY_LEVEL=1
#TPA_INITIALMEM=1024
#PROC_MAXMEM=4096
#
# The default is the console.

#KERN_DEBUG_LEVEL=1

# KERN_BIOSBUF controls how BIOS I/O is performed.

KERN_BIOSBUF=NO
#
# Here are some commands that you can give to MiNT:
#
# alias d: path -- make a fake "drive" that actually points to the
# given path
# cd path -- changes MiNT's default directory
# echo message -- print something on the screen
# exec program -- runs a program; you must give the complete path
# and file extensions (e.g. c:/bin/echo.prg)
# include file -- include another portion of the MINT.CNF file.
# sln path link -- make a symbolic link named "link" pointing to "path"
# "link" must be on drive U: for this to work
# Setting up the root filesystem for UNIX environment
sln d:/bin u:/bin
sln d:/boot u:/boot
sln d:/etc u:/etc
sln d:/home u:/home
sln d:/lib u:/lib
sln d:/mnt u:/mnt
sln d:/opt u:/opt
sln d:/root u:/root
sln d:/sbin u:/sbin
sln d:/tmp u:/tmp
sln d:/usr u:/usr
sln d:/var u:/var
# start Draconis to MiNT-Net gateway
#exec u:/boot/mint/mgw.prg
# start Gluestik
#exec u:/boot/mint/gluestik.prg
# start XaAES
INIT=u:/c/mint/1-16-0/xaaes/xaloader.prg
#
# The "echo" command is really straightforward.
#
echo Setup complete, now booting the system...
echo
--------------------------cut here -------------------------------
The XA-Loader is in the specified directory - I also entered
a different file as init (sh.tos), but the error messages
stay the same.
It seems that somehow the kernel lost his ability to parse
the CNF file correctly. I checked my CNF in hexmode looking for
strange characters, but didn't find anything...
What is wrong here?
