can i use bootx to boot in 8.2 ?
i understand i need a kernel and setting boot device. where can i get
the good kernel ? how can i tell the partition device name (let's say
it's partition 6 from the only SCSI disk in my machine (ID 0)) ? once i
have the name, how do i tell bootx to boot that partition ???
Check the BootX folder of the ISO (are you using beta2 iso?). Replace the
initrd with the one on:

kernel should be the same version: vmlinuz-2.4.18-6mdk
There's really no way for us to know what drive/partition you installed
on. You could try to use pdisk to figure out what partition "/" is on, or
boot the rescue image.
