So far, 8.2 installs FIRST TIME on every platform I've tried -- NICE!!
This may come as a surprise to Civileme; but 8.2 even installs on a
Toshiba Tecra 500CDT with only 32MB in graphical mode... :^) Although
I'm debugging 8.2 X problems... So, I'm running 8.1 on it at the
moment...
LILO problem: While installing 8.2 (separate / and /usr from 8.1
install), when in the step where I can add another OS to lilo, I specified
"linux8.1" with /boot/vmlinuz on /dev/hda5... nothing else; yet this is
what got added: image=/boot/vmlinuz
label=linux8.1
root=/dev/hda5
initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.18-6mdk.img
read-only ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Wrong!
Reverting this entry to what I had in 8.1:
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label=linux8.1
root=/dev/hda5
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append=" devfs=mount"
vga=788
read-only
restored my ability to start X in 8.1...
