 As many of you probably know [;-)] I run Debian on a

 Mutt refuses to show them for some reason! The same .muttrc
 works fine on i386 boxes, with the same Mutt version (1.0p3). I
 suspect it has something to do with the framebuffer.

 Hints?

Check out your locales, and the associated environment variables
(LANG, LC_CTYPE, etc.)

Silo Problem

1999-10-15 Thread Mark Sieczkowski
I was trying to customize my silo.conf and screwed something up so I 
returned it to its original state as follows:


partition=2
root=/dev/sda2
timeout=100
image=vmlinuz
label=linux
read-only

but now when I reboot I get this

SILO Syntax error in etc/silo.conf

at boot: I try

/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda2
or
/boot/vmlinuz-2.0.35 root=/dev/sda2

and get

Fatal error: Unable to open filesystem

This setup worked before what else could I have changed to mess it up?
I'm running Slink on an IPC, with Silo version 0.8.5.  I've checked both 
/vmlinuz and /boot/vmlinuz-2.0.35 are present and spelled correctly.  For 
now I have to boot off a floppy but I would like to fix this..help...
