by This is driving me absolutely crazy, mostly because I'm not very good with
linux or with trackign down bugs.
--------
Yesterday I deleted out my old SLS and installed 1.03. It went pretty much
ok.
The problem is, when I then configured the kernel and recompiled, the disk
produced with the 'make disk' command doesn't work. All it will do is
boot up, print out the dots and then reboot the computer (a hard reboot;
doing the memory check).
Yes, the Makefile is set up to /dev/hdb2 (root).
I was having this problem last night and it was recommended to do a 'cp
Image /dev/fd0' and it did apparently work, but subsequent compiles using
that command to write the disk have been unsuccessful.
I have been using the a1 disk from thee SLS to boot, but that's getting
pretty old.
In any case, here's the system stats. Nothing too excitng, but it might
be important. I'd appreciate any help anyone could provide. THanks.
