Soy nuevo en Linux, apenas 6 meses.
Durante 4, us� Mandrake y sus asistentes. Cuando m�s o menos entend�a qu� hac�a, cambi� a Debian.
Luego de pelearme durante un mes con los perif�ricos, decid� que era hora de juagar en serio.


No puedo configurar el arranque de LILO con otro kernel. Me explico:
Instal� la imagen 2.4.18-bf2.4 que me da como opci�n el instalador de la revisi�n 3.0 r2 Woody.
Con el APT cargu� la 2.5.18-586tsc.
Seg�n el sistema, estuvo bien, pero no me deja levantar la imagen 586 (tengo un PIII 750 Mhz).
Inicia la carga, y se detiene con el siguiente mensaje (�ltimos 4 renglones, donde empiezan mensajes de problemas):


request_module[block-major3]: Rooot not mounted
VFS: Cannot open root device "345" or 03:45
Please append a correct device "root=" boot option
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable mount root fs on 03:45

Le� LILO y todos sus manuales, HowTo de kernel y los etc�teras que se les ocurran: Me rindo.

Adjunto el lilo.conf para que si alguien pueda tenderme una mano, me ayude. Es mi intenci�n en poco instalar el kernel 2.6. Si tengo problemas en un arranque dual con algo que ya viene en la distribuci�n, no quiero imaginar qu� me puede pasar con algo que compile.

Gracias.

Javier

# Enable map compaction:
# Tries to merge read requests for adjacent sectors into a single

# You can set a password here, and uncomment the `restricted' lines
# in the image definitions below to make it so that a password must
# be typed to boot anything but a default configuration.  If a
# command line is given, other than one specified by an `append'
# statement in `lilo.conf', the password will be required, but a
# standard default boot will not require one.
#
# This will, for instance, prevent anyone with access to the
# console from booting with something like `Linux init=/bin/sh',
# and thus becoming `root' without proper authorization.
#
# Note that if you really need this type of security, you will
# likely also want to use `install-mbr' to reconfigure the MBR
# program, as well as set up your BIOS to disallow booting from
# removable disk or CD-ROM, then put a password on getting into the
# BIOS configuration as well.  Please RTFM `install-mbr(8)'.

# You can put a customized boot message up if you like.  If you use
