No specific experience, however, this error message has been reported to
the Linux Kernel list, as retrieved through Google.  I believe it
indicates a compilation or compilation configuration error.

Hey Guys,
I was compiling a 2.4 kernel (test5) and put the info in lilo.conf, ran
lilo and now on boot if I try to boot the image, I get a message saying:

No setup signature found...

the system then halts. Does anyone know what may be causing this?
I buit another kernel from the same 2.4 source and it boots fine.

Thanks for any info!

Hi,
may be you are using the wrong X-Server?
Just today I saw the same problem (blinking screen) and the problem was 
a S3-Server on a et4000 card.

No setup signature found?

1998-02-02 Thread T-SNAKE
Hi all. first post to the list...

I have two questions.
1:
Last night I installed the bulk of the software (found on the boot disc
distribution of debian) and bascially configured XFree86. I believe I set it
to load on boot, but I'm not sure if that's important. When I rebooted, from
the hard disk (which is running LILO to auto load LINUX) 
I get this message:
Loading.......
No setup signature found...
and it just hangs. What is that? And why? When I reboot with the linux boot
floppy, it all loads just fine.

2:
When I try to run xdm to startup X, the screen blinks (ever so slowly) over
and over and doesn't seem to load X. I can see my prompt during the blinking
and I can type commands (one or two strokes at a time), so I did a ps to see
what was running and I got a list of UIDs which included the ps and bash, but
also had four UIDs involving /sbin/getty
When I kill each of those four processes and ps again, there are four more but
with higher UID (ie first they were like in the 100's then the 200's then the
300's ...). I was in a rush to get to work this morn so I didn't think to
write down EXACTLY what was wrong.
Any ideas?

Thanks,
Chris
