Subject: Re: Loadlin
When using Loadlin...
I think it's very important that you select the correct kernel image
for your system. For me " bare.i " works because my cdrom
drive is connected directly to an IDE plug on the motherboard.
When I use my box with the cdrom drive connecting to the
SoundBlaster card, I have to use " sbpcd.i " in Loadlin.
** I LOVE Loadlin because it is fast to boot with, and I won't
corrupt the MBR as LiLo has...
