Re: [newbie] kernel boot problem

Assuming that your linux partition is on /dev/hda5
>From the Mandrake CD copy this to your c:\ in windows 98
1. vmlinuz
2. loadlin.exe
Boot in msdos mode (do not use an msdos window)
Go to the root of c:\
loadlin.exe c:\vmlinuz boot=/dev/hda5 rw

I suggest next time read the corresponding howto.
