Re: FAT-32 and IDE LBA

I've been inspired by the recent developments in VSTa to give it
another try. I've downloaded the latest vsta.tz and the new wd.tz and
dos.tz and installed it all under \vsta on my C: drive which is FAT32.
I've also downloaded and compiled the latest GRUB, compiled it on
Linux and installed it on a floppy.

When I try and boot VSTa I now get:

syslog: wd (pid 5) info: unit 0: 3337.8M - LBA
init: can't find root, sleeping
init: can't find root, sleeping
syslog: dos (pid 7) error unable to open //disk/wd:wd0_dos0

It then drops into the debugger.

I'm not sure how I can debug this as I don't have a working VSTa to
recompile anything. Can I cross compile from Linux?
