I think I found a problem in /etc/lilo.conf Originally I had /dev/ram3 in the 2.4.19-35 image, and that didn't work. Also I noticed boot= set to /dev/hda, which is /var, and my boot is on /dev/hdb. However, I have a boot.0300 file. I'm going to switch it back to /dev/hda for now. I think my lilo is stored in /dev/hda for some reason, and I don't want to fiddle.
The only thing I can think of to explain the 'finding module dependencies' issue is the presence of 'append devfs=nomount' vs 'yes' in the appended lilo.conf. One stanza says yes (mount), the other says no. But does that explain not being able to use the cdrecorder? And I was incorrect on the kernel issue. Apparently both are using linux 2.4.19-35mdk, since vmlinuz points there. I've set it up so that one will boot 2.4.19-16, the other 2.4.19-35. But I don't think that will make much difference. I'll try and reboot the 'linux' image now and report back. boot=/dev/hdb map=/boot/map default=linux keytable=/boot/us.klt prompt nowarn timeout=100 message=/boot/message menu-scheme=wb:bw:wb:bw image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.19-16mdk label=linux root=/dev/hdb6 initrd=/boot/initrd.img append="devfs=mount hdc=ide-scsi" read-only image=/boot/vmlinuz label=failsafe root=/dev/hdb6 initrd=/boot/initrd.img append="devfs=nomount hdc=ide-scsi failsafe" read-only other=/dev/fd0 label=floppy unsafe image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.19-35mdk label=2419-35 root=/dev/hdb6 read-only optional vga=788 append=" initrd=alt0/all.rdz ramdisk_size=32000 " initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.19-35mdk.img
