just add this line to your /etc/lilo.conf and run lilo (as root). append = "apm=on" if you already have an append line for that kernel image then you seperate the arguments with a space, eg: append = "floppy=thinkpad apm=on" adam. ------------------------ Internet Alaska ------------------------ 4050 Lake Otis Pkwy Adam Shand (v) +1 907 562 4636 Anchorage, AK 99508 Technical Lead (f) +1 907 562 1677 --------------------- http://www.spack.org/ --------------------- "Computers are useless.
