I'm back again, I have recompiled my kernel, but now it wont boot from the new bootdisk that 'make zdisk' created. I followed the HOWTO to the letter, and here I am stuck. It will still boot off of my old boot disk, but not properly, it says there are no modules for that kernel. As I had kernel 2.0.29 and now have 2.0.33, this is not a large suprise. It will start to boot off of the new boot disk, but comes to a crashing halt and the last thing displayed onscreen is "VFS: mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly." then it stops, never to restart. I have asked people in irc, but the best advice i got was to reformat my disk and try again, which did not work. I have used 2 disks, both of which have been formatted and scandisk has been run on, both disks have no bad sectors. Do i need to use the rawwrite program on the disks in order for them to be usable?? I am completely at a loss and standstill until i can get this problem solved, so any advice, other than what I received through irc, would be appreciated. Charles I also get a line that says "ide2: ports already in use, skipping probe" I am wondering about what this line is trying to tell me, any insights? thanks again all
