Yeah, it was the NIC problem. it was not configured properly at boot. the
IRQ is not assigned. I overlooked that part when I used ifconfigu to check
this.
It is working ok now asfter I disab led pnp OS in the bios. ANd the bios
configured the irq instead of leaving it to the OS.

Did you do a ls -a to make sure there are no hidden files?
To totally remove it type: rm -rf
That should get rid of the whole thing...

Okay,
I am trying to delete a directory. This directory contains only the

the error that the directory is not empty. All is done as root and
owner and user of the directory are root. Any ideas why I can't do
this??

Many thanks for all the suggestions!
I've removed the append command from lilo.conf, but that didn't help.
So I didn't try the 'append="mem=127M"' suggestion.
Adding the disk=/dev/sda and bios=0x81 didn't help either.

First, don't make any physical changes to your setup - they aren't necessary.
And you don't need to move /boot either.
As you watch your boot sequence you should see the SCSI drive being initialized. Look
at this
closely and you should see the BIOS drive number. Something like 0x81 or just 81.

You should be able to find an RPM for it at Dell's Website. I forget where. If

Sure, not being able to position the icons where you want piss me off too,

XFree has been updated at least twice since RHL 5.2 was released, so
