I just tried lilo, and it loads the kernel fine it seems to fail on the initrd: Initramfs unpacking failed: junk in compressed archive It then panics and dies. Googling threw up a few suggestions, adding the 'large-memory' option in lilo.conf didn't change anything and the only other suggestion was the partition containing /boot being too large. /dev/sda is a large disk but I'm trying to boot the system of a small 4GB compact flash card on /dev/sdb. I currently boot it using grub installed on /dev/sda but I'd like to remove that disk at some point. My lilo.conf is attached. If anyone can suggest something please shout :) -Phil _______________________________________________ Soekris-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech
