Well, the versions of syslinux can be quite particular with certain pieces of hardware. I've never had a problem with syslinux-v1.66. Is your DOS partition less than the 25Meg limit? Did you reboot after partitioning? If formatting with M$ tools later than DOS-6.0, did you "lock" the drive? Is the drive "hda"? Some machines won't boot unless it is. Your error would seem to indicate that the machine is not seeing syslinux at all. -- ~Lynn Avants Linux Embedded Firewall Project developer http://leaf.sourceforge.net ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html
