Ladies and Gentelmen,

I am using RedHat 5.1 kernel 2.0.35-2 in a distribution made by Mandrake
company (it has the KDE allready installed).

I used for a while Slackware and I know it is a difference.The loadlin
of Slackware is different. I tried both loadlin with no effect.

I can not make hda3 bootable because WIN95 don't start. It gives the
message "partition table altered" and remains locked.   

On the boot floppy there are:

vmlinuz-2.0.35

folder BOOT containing  boot.b , map
folder DEV              fd0 , hda3
folder ETC              lilo.conf


The lines in lilo.conf are:

boot=/dev/fd0
image=/vmlinuz-2.0.35   
label=linux
root=/dev/hda3

I red also the manual for loadlin and it seems to be old (april 1996).
May be loadlin is not to be used with new kernels.

I noticed another message "no image found for vmlinuz" just before
"module dependencies not found".
Where can I found the messages from boot time ? The text is scrolling
too fast.

Thanks,

Cristian Carnutu
