Hi,
Need assistance getting 2.6.6 kernel to boot ok after Hdinstall. I have no problems whatsoever booting from cd to the 2.6.6 kernel using knoppix26 lang=us dma parameters. Not a single bad message. HOWever after doing a hdinstall, I get nothing but problems booting the 2.6.6 kernel. It locks up after trying to do some some usb stuff. The 2.4.26 kernel boots fine after the hdinstall (it does however try to load usb stuff numereous times). I'm using the 5/16/2004 knoppix.
I have tried almost every cheat code combination possible in lilo.conf. Is there some way to modify the boot up sequence of the hdinstall to be identical or similiar to the cd boot sequence. The cd boot to the 2.6.6 kernel gives me no problems at all and I'm now trying figure out a way to make the hdinstall bootup sequence similiar to the cd boot up sequence. My hardware is an ispiron 8600 laptop with the ati 9600 pro video chip.
Some additional Info:
cd boots fine with both 2.4 and 2.6 kernels with no bad messages.
2.4 kernel boots ok after hdinstall.
I think it may have to do with the hotplug system, though hotplug seems to work fine from a cdboot into the 2.6 kernel. Is there a way to turn off coldplug in hotplug with some config value somewhere?
Thanks in advance.
:lol:
PS previous version of 3.4 2.6.5 kernel booted fine after hdinstall.
