    Oh, I have 2.2.4 working perfectly. the point is that I made exactly the
same passes for 2.0.36 , 2.2.0 ,2.2.1, 2.2.2, 2.2.3, 2.2.4 and 2.2.5... the
others work, .5 doesn't...

    Me, too... now... :)

    Yeah, that's the point, thanks. I'll keep trying. I wanted only to be
sure that the problem wasn't dued to those old progs. That's all. Thanks for
replying, anyway! :)

    No, none. It just writes 'starting lin...' (the name of my linux for
lilo) and hangs. Mah. I can't even press ctrl-alt-canc, but have to press
the reboot button on the case of my pc...


Oh... I see that 2.2.6 is out... one can't finish troubling with a thing
that they publish another one! M$, at least, publish a patch per year, so
one can get use to the bugs he has, and even call them by name... I'm
joking, don't e-mail-bomb me!!! ;)

Best regards,
    Mano :)
