Hi, I have a problem with my Toshiba Satellite 2430-502 Laptop.
I installed Debian Linux 3.0 with a 2.2.20 Kernel and it worked fine so far. Now I was trying to compile a 2.4.20/2.4.21 Kernel. The compilation itself does not make any problems, but when I try to boot the Kernel with LILO, it hangs right after the message "Uncompressing Kernel....". The System really hangs so that I have to turn power off. The same happens when I try to install Debian with the bf24 (2.4 Kernel) option or boot a Knoppix CD (I tried the noapm/noapic option). Now I tried to install RedHat 9. The installation worked fine. RH9 is now running on the laptop (with a 2.4.20 Kernel), but I´d prefer a Debian Linux. I´m a bit confused why RH runs and Debian doesn´t. Does anybody know what the problem might be. I heard that on some hardware are problems with 'make bzImage'. THX. /Basti
