I installed Debian Lenny on this Laptop without problems; I used LILO and wrote it to the MBR (dev/sda). Debian resides at /dev/sda4 Windows XP is in /dev/sda1
So when booting, LILO menu appears - if I choose Lenny to start, then LILO loads very very slowly the kernel-image (shows 2 1/2 lines of dots, each dot drawing is about 1 second). After this slow procedure, kernel-image seems to be loades into RAM an then kernel-messages (usual within Linux starting up ...) appear and the further boot-process is normal. So, WHY: loads LILO so slowly ? Is there a problem with SCSI-HardDisk , have I to tell parameters to LILO ? thx herby -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
