Hi,
I did a boot disk of my redhat 5.0 (kernel 2.0.32) by going to root and
executing following command:
dd if =/boot/vmlinuz of=/dev/fd0 bs=8192
The bootdisk is probably ok..but pls, could anyone clarify this with me:

When I run my bootdisk, it s like when my system boots as normal (with
all the daemon detections...drivers..etc), then I get the login prompt
where I can log as root and browse into my linux box as usual. But How
come my boot disk (like the one I had before with redhat 4.2) doesnt
prompt me with : "Welcome to redhat Linux..press ENTER to continue..or
pass any argument to the boot prompt..etc..etc.."...

Well, I have no way ...with my redhat 5 bootdisk..to press the ENTER key
to install or upgrade my system..for ie..; it just prompts me to my
system log on, and thats yet..
and that s a problem cause I cannot upgrade or install the system with
that boot disk..

Thanks
