Hi, I guess I spoke too soon, although I can login to debian from grub now something is wrong. I can't connect to the internet for one. I just booted from the floppy and I can connect. So something isn't loading correctly with the debian grub entry I have( which is listed below).BTW I did a uname -r and the correct kernel is running. I did remove the "vga=791 line and I have the boot/start up messages now. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks
