It does the same thing as before, just slower since it's from a floppy (reboots the machine). This time I did configure the kernel a bit and recompile with still no success. If you have anymore options or suggestions, please feel free to pass them on. Here's my machine setup since you asked: Intel 233 192 meg Ram 10 gb Maxtor HDD (partitioned as hda1:/boot hda5:/ hda?:/swap) Intel chipset (PCIset) Here's my lilo.conf file: =============================== boot = /dev/hda message = /boot/boot_message.txt prompt timeout = 1200 change-rules reset vga = normal image = /vmlinuz root = /dev/hda5 label = Linux read-only image = /vmlinuz-2.4.17 root = /dev/hda5 label = Linux-2.4.17 read-only ================================ It's got to be my configuration or lilo setup (I think) because I can install Slackware,Redhat and others on it just fine with their default setup. Anyways, please pass on any info you think might help. -----Original Message----- From: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org [mailto:linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org]On Behalf Of Davidovac Zoran Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2002 8:00 AM To: J.S.Souza Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Subject: Re: Kernel compile problem after reboot On Tue, 19 Feb 2002, J.S.Souza wrote: > Date: Tue, 19 Feb 2002 07:47:54 -0800 > From: J.S.Souza > To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org > Subject: Kernel compile problem after reboot > > I am using Slack 8 with 2.2.19 and trying to install 2.4.17.

Do not use defaults! when you did cp bzImage to /boot I hope you did cp bzImage /boot/vzlinuz-2.4.17 then try this cp bzImage /dev/fd0 rdev /dev/fd0 /dev/hda5 try to boot from floppy if that is ok , reconfigure kernel try to boot it. If it still don't boot perhaps your bios can't reach kernel for some reason. if still don't work post description on what hardware / disk ? regards, Zoran - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
