Hi again! I compiled 2.3.9 again and - it also does not boot, hanging around at the same time. If I specify an old image at the lilo-prompt (which is 2.3.9/SMP, but compiled some days before), everything works okay (except the modules, as far as I know because of the missing correct System.map) This is something, I don't understand. My root-disk is much less than 1024 cylinders (about 2GB). I tried to compile lilo 21.5.1 and 21.5, but the assembler complains right at the beginning, current lilo version is 20. Another computer runs with 2.3.9/lilo 20/527 cylindery root-disk (about 4GB) without problems. Thank you for any help! bye, Sebastian -- ************************************************************************ m.o.p.Sys GmbH Sebastian Willing http://www.mops.net Technical director Telefon: 05139/9931-11 e-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Telefax: 05139/9931-31 Internet bundesweit zum Ortstarif! ************************************************************************ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
