more or less, there are a few things you often need in quik.conf that do not apply to lilo.conf: 1) partition= this should be the partition number of the root filesystem, not always required but it often helps. 2) image= should point to the real kernel image file, and not a symlink, quik should work ok with symlinks but i have have found that it does not always work with them (indirect experience). the point is quik could very well be outputting a simple and clear error message that your not seeing because OF does not display anything to the screen. most oldworlds need the output-device variable changed to display to the screen, if they support it at all. otherwise a serial terminal is needed. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
