Two, make sure you have your filesystem compiled into the kernel, not as a module. Also your ide-chipset(as per a earlier poster) and all other relavent config options. I would recommend starting with your .config from the known working kernel. It can be found in /boot just copy it over to linux/.config and make menuconfig and go straight to your ide-chipset and set it to compile in and then your file system and set it to compile in. Then you can play around with everything else. Also try keeping acpi and apm out untill you get a known working kernel. Other than that maybe copy down the acctual error your getting durring the boot process. -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
