Hi Michael,
My tried and true method for old dossers is
boot dos including dos cdrom drivers mscdex,
d: ( or whichever drive is your CD )
cd install
type install.txt | more ( gives some install information )
boot
( now your in the install program )
When you enter parameters you
When you enter parameters you must also include the kernel name. such as
linux (I cant remember if that is the name used on the install floppies)
so:
LILO boot: linux [parameters]

Thanks for your response - however, I'd included linux (the name used on
both floppies and CD). It must be my parameters which are incorrect. Booting
from CD-ROM, the 3rd Hard Drive and with boot.bat and linux in the
install directory what parameters should work? Today, I changed the
CD-ROM drive
I have a spare machine onto which I am trying to install 2.0 r3. The machine has
a
Pentium MMX166 processor, two hard drives (one 426Mb with DOS 6.2 and W3.11:
the other 1.1Gb empty and available for Linux), 32Mb FPM physical RAM, 1.44
Floppy,
32x CD-ROM Drive, an S3 Virge/DX(PCI) Video Card and
4 matches
