Very Computer

Dear friends,
Being an owner of ATI Rage 128 I had to configure RedHat 6.0 with the FBDev.
It works fine for me and all is OK. My problem is how to make a proper
startup (boot) floppy disk for such a configuration. This one that was
prepared during the instalation (or afterwards using 'makebootdisk' command)
lets me into Linux (console) but with no FBDev I can not start X. Also using
this disk I have "normal" resolution, not 1024. What have I to do? What
changes on startup disk to make it boot Linux with FBDev? Will you help me?
Thank you very much in advance
Maria

Instead of doing a make bzImage and then making a boot disk, just do a make
bzdisk instead (make sure you have a floppy in the drive)
