I tried to make a boot floppy by copying the kernel on the floppy: cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/zImage /dev/fd0 it works except that when I boot from the floppy my Adaptec 1542 isn't recognized at boot; when I boot with the same kernel from the hard disk the 1542 is recognized without problems; I am sure it's the same kernel on the floppy and the hard disk and the Adaptec support is built-in the kernel and it's not a module.
does somebody as an idea of what's happening? thanks in advance Hubert [EMAIL PROTECTED]
