v100 ethernet problems

2004-03-14 Thread Marc Horowitz
I'm seeing several problems with the network on my v100 machine. I'm running 2.4.21. I compared the sources between this and 2.4.25, and it looks like nothing relevant has changed, but I'm willing to try a newer kernel if someone tells me it fixes any of these problems. Problem 1: Somewhat corre

cd boot fails: kernel can't find root fs

2002-12-02 Thread Marc Horowitz
I have an ss10 with a cdrom drive and no floppy. I used jigdo to download and burn a 3.0 cdrom image, which worked without a hitch. When I put the media in and boot it, SILO loads, and I hit enter to load the default kernel image. the kernel boots, then things stop working so perfectly: scsi
