You got that backwards. S
Use GRUB. Sorry, cheap shot. You have to have a boot loader, whether it's
LILO, GRUB, or some other package. LILO and GRUB don't really care if you
are dual-booting 2 operating systems or dual-booting 2 different versions of
the Linux kernel. All they care about is disk locations of bootstrap

The problem is solved.
I stripped down the kernel to a minimum of options. After that the system
booted up with no errors.

I had the same problem (it sounds like) on a couple

I resolved the problem (after much digging through

Hi Ronald, You might need to use a combination of the virtusertable and

Ghostscript comes standard with an PDF output device (

so you only need to process your printer output (in postscript)
