Re: Total loss with 2.4.0 (release)
I think that your linux's partition has not been overwritten, but only the MBR of your disk, so you probably just need to reinstall lilo. Insert your installation bootdisk into your pc, then skip all the setup stuff, but the choose of the partition where you want to install and the source from where you want to install, then select just the lilo configuration (bootconfiguration I mean), complete that step and reboot your machine, lilo will'be there again.

Re: Why isn't init PID 1?
Yes, in this situation "sash" is the process with pid '1', you should run this script through init and not viceversa, the first process launched takes pid 1. P.

Re: Disk is cheap?
I built a embedded dvd/cdda/mp3 player based on linux, using a p200mmx with 24mb with a bus of 75mhx, but it still takes about 20 seconds to boot, I think that an embedded device (for home use) should boot in less than 5 seconds, how could be possible with a slow p133? (I've also tried a p133 on 66mhz of bus and it takes almost 35 seconds to boot) However, first or last old hardware will finish, and who wants to build an embedded device should use high cost embedded hardware (high cost for me).
