Ah, this explains a lot :-) When I added a Qlogic SCSI controller (and 9GB UW disk) to my XLT, I couldn't get MILO to use the kernel on the new disk. Of course I now realize what the problem is (2.2 ext2fs of course). And a new MILO didn't work (hung as described). I solved my problem by copying the kernel to the FAT partition and booting off that. > I would offer to test milos on my XLTs, but neither of them are > too available for experimentation (one is a web server, another a file I can test milos, no problem. I really only use the XLT for porting at the moment.
