Hi,
This system is relatively new, it's an athlon 1.4 ghz, with 512 ddr ram. I
compared the lilo.conf files of the mandrake install, and the redhat
install.
The following are in the mandrake install
The differences were:
vga=normal <- i knew this didn't make a difference
keytable=/boot/us.klt <- figured it was keymapping
nowarn <- no idea what this is
ignore-table <- no idea what this is
now in the linux label part redhat didn't contain
append="quiet devfs=mount hdb=ide-scsi"
it had
append="hdb=ide-scsi"
Those are the only differences other than the timeout part, they both
contained "lba32" as well.
Still no luck. I never did add the append="quiet devfs=mount". I wasn't
sure what that was. Any ideas?
