For future reference, one of the options in the advanced menu of fdisk is to renumber partitions in disk order. But I had them out of order on my laptop for ages and no problem. Shouldn't really matter to anything that doesn't suck. :-p What hardware are you running (ide card, motherboard, drive)? Also, for precision's sake, what does `fdisk -l /dev/hda` give you? Given what you've said it sounds like there's something unusual about your setup. You seem to have done everything right, but that's hardly unusual for wierd stuff like this. You might want to try attacking it from the floppy first--boot from the liveCD, back up your .config, copy /proc/.config over, and use that kernel to boot off the floppy. If that doesn't work, something's *really* wierd. Hmm. Maybe the disk has a bad sector in the first track? Good luck...you'll need it, I think. At some point you're probably going to want to go to the LILO or GRUB lists. -Heschi
