Not booting I just loaded a new PII-266 system with Linux 2.0.30
(Slack 3.3) and now when LiLo boots via the MBR on the ide drive, it LILO
comes up, boots the kernel, and the kernel boots. It get to the point of
mounting read-only, and then just stops with no disk activity.
I can boot with a LILO diskette by supplying "mount root=/dev/hda6" as
parameters, and it goes to the same point, mounts read-only, checks the
drive, then remounts as read-write and goes its merry normal way.
I have tried reinstalling LILO, and even redoing the kernel. No luck.
The Kernel is okay since it's being booted from a LILO diskette just fine.
Help!
