Before I created this mess, I was running the 2.4.18-bf2.4 kernel. I tried the rescue.bin and root.bin floppies from the Debian site but I was not able to boot w/ them. I was able to boot w/ the 2.2. 20-compact floppies however. Now, using 2.2.20-compact, I cannot get the Netgear FA311 NIC working and the tulip module will not load. I still have the /lib/modules/2. 4.18-bf2.4 directory intact. Considering I can boot on that machine w/ the 2.2.20-compact kernel, and the only way I can get code onto it is via floppy at this point (unless I can get tulip to load which is dismal), and I have an intact /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4 dir, can I get only the files: boot/System.map-2.4.18-bf2.4 boot/config-2.4.18-bf2.4 boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-bf2.4 from the package, save them to floppy individually, put them on the other machine, change lilo.conf to reflect the 2.4.18-bf2.4 kernel, run lilo and reboot to the 2.4.18-bf2.4 kernel? If so, how can I get only the three files from the package I wish? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Zero Crossings, Inc. -- Embedded and Digital Signal Processing Systems http://www.zerocrossings.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
