Hello,
While booting Knoppix 3.4, I always get an error about my video modes not being defined. In order to skip this I have to either press space or wait for 30 seconds. I learned that in order to bypass this problem I have to boot with 'vga=normal'.
I know how to edit my lilo config file, and I tried adding 'vga=normal' to the file. However, whenever I go into root console to test lilo, I always get the error saying vga= is not valid. Has anyone ever encountered this problem before? Thanks for your help.
Here is some text from my lilo.conf file:
default="Knop 3.4 ker2.4"
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label="Knop 3.4 ker2.4"
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init lang=us apm=power-off nomce quiet lang=us fb1024x768 myconfig=/mnt/hdc2 vga=normal"
read-only
and here is the error I get when I try to test LILO in the console:
Fatal: APPEND or LITERAL may not contain "vga="
