Hi folks,
Do you get a mysterious hang at random times during installation of
your RPMs?
Does the installer freeze when trying to detect the PCMCIA interface?
These are the two most useful kernel flags I use. Use both at install
time.
lilo: linux ide=nodma PCMCIA=no
Does your CD-ROM drive mount correctly but have serious problems
coughing up the last few files in a directory?
Then edit /etc/lilo.conf and add the "ide=nodma" option to the append
field of the proper image entry, like so:
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label=linux
root=/dev/hda1
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append=" devfs=mount ide=nodma"
read-only
and su to root, run lilo to install the changes, and reboot. Hope I got
that right.
