 Drop in your CD#1 install and hit F1 at the splash screen then type

 rescue

 and try re-running LILO.

I have had the exact same problem several times lately trying to install the 
cooker beta from June or upgrading (urpmi) an 8.2 install to cooker. I was 
able to install 8.0 and 8.2 with no problem.

I suspected it was a problem with my new motherboard, a MSI KT3 Ultra with 
raid and the newer kernels not getting along.  I have since left well enough 
alone but would like to go to the 9.0 beta. I just don't know how to fix that 
problem.  I did try rerunning LILO at one point but I forget where.  

I wanted to report it to cooker but had not saved the messages.

Re: [newbie] Hard Drive addition in Linux

 Hello there,
 Are you saying that windoze sees it as 4GB? A 4Kb drive is a very
 retrograde step! What sort of motherboard do you have, processor etc? Which
 version of 'doze' do you use? How have you partitioned your drive. Are you
 using Partition Magic or what?

 Send some more info please.

 Subject:  [newbie] Hard Drive addition in Linux

   File: message.footer  Hello,

 I found this mailing list on the Mandrake site, and thought you all
 might be able to help me with my problem.  I purchased a hard drive
 yesterday (maxtor 40GB 5400rpm) and installed it thru windoze.  I can see
 and use the drive fine in windoze, however when I access my linux setup
 (Linux Mandrake 8.0, running KDE; I have a dual boot system using grub)  I
 can see the drive when I look for it in the windoze explorer browser (can't
 remember name?)  but the size shows as 4kb and I can't see any files on
 it... its like a blank drive...

 Does anyone know how to configure Linux to see this drive in kde so I
 can read/write to it?  I've got all my mp3's on this drive... so it's kinda
 important to have it up:) no music until it's working!  Thanks in advance!


  - Joe :)

You need to set up the drive in /etc/fstab.   I am not the one to tell you 
how though, sorry.

[newbie] nsplugin segfaulting

2001-08-19 Thread Chuck Lalli

I have upgraded to kde2.2 (texstar) and have been mostly happy, but I do have 
a couple of issues.  Most annoying is that nsplugin is segfaulting.  I have 
it set to run at kde start up, I get the segfault message twice while the 
splash screen is up.  Here is the message I saved:
