Hi All People,
(Only one CDWriter without CDRom)
I could not mount CDwriter for unknown reason. RH7.2 ran without problem
after having a new kernel installed for a few days.
During booting, following warning pop-up ;
/etc/rc.sysinit: line 741: 286 Segmentation fault modprobe
ide-cd
may I know where you downloaded from ?
I tried download from Ray Curtis who gave me the url for his version, but
am apparently having some difficulty installing it as it gives some install
errors and not able to run the GUI.
thanks,

Did you re-run LILO after creating the kernels? Sorry if you already

Remember, LILO actually keeps the sector of the disk that the kernel is on

that, you have to re-run LILO.
