Just found your enhanced documentation. Good work! I searched it for my 
problem:

I need a journaling file system. So I tried to install bf2.4. It fails like 
this:
boot: bf24
Loading /install
Loading bf24.bin
 ready.
Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel.
--> here the cursor stops blinking.

I got the advice to install an older kernel and then switch to the new one but 
I do not know how to switch to the journaling file system at that point.

Is there a more direct way for my goal?

I am using an Athlon 1800+ with two harddisks, one not yet partitioned and 
formatted. 

(I did not see my mal on the list. This time I use the feature 'reply to list' 
in KMail. Sorry for any inconvenience.)

bf24 fails almost instantly

This is what I get:

boot: bf24
Loading /install
Loading bf24.bin
 ready.
Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel.
--> here the cursor stops blinking.

I tried bf24 verbose with the same result
I am using a Packard Bell machine with a Athlon 1700+, DVD, burner, 3.5" 
floppy, Realtec network card and two IDE drives on the same cable. One drive 
is recentliy installed and not yet partitioned and formatted.

Thanks a lot!
