You press alt-F2, then you get a console, there you can edit that file in /targetdir/etc/pcmcia (i'm not sure 'bout the name targetdir, but it's someting in that direction). 2nd option is when your installation is complete you type after the lilo prompt: linux init=/bin/bash Then the kernel starts up withoud starting init. Then you need to mount your root filesystem read-writable by typing mount -o remount,rw / then you can edit /etc/pcmcia/config.opts save your changes, mount the root filesystem readonly again: mount -o remount,ro / and reboot It's possible that you get an error from e2fsck that your root wasnt umounted correctly. I don't know how to avoid that message. Greetz, Jo
