Add "single" to the -flags argument(s), ie -flags "root=/dev/sda3 single". > Also, has anyone got a X to work with a Voodoo3 on Potato on the > above hardware? Both 3.3.6 and 4.0.x have working Voodoo3 support, IIRC, though 4.0.x is problematic on EV56 machines with some servers. The problem area is most likely that the SRM console's BIOS emulator may not like the BIOS code on the card. Only advice is to FLASH the latest release of SRM available for 1000A, and see what happens. Hold on to your receipt in case you have to return the card... :-\ Good luck. --Jay++ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jay A Estabrook Alpha Engineering - LINUX Project Compaq Computer Corp. - MRO1-2/K20 (508) 467-2080 200 Forest Street, Marlboro MA 01752 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
