Hi all,
I've been trying to use custom kernels on Knoppix, but I never managed to select them at boot time, because LILO doesn't even show them in the menu.

Here's the procedure I follow:
-get kernel.org sources and patch them (boot param. & ptrace)
-make xconfig on original Knoppix conf. file; select/deselect stuff I do/do not need
-make-kpkg --revision 1.0 kernel_image; don't allow touching lilo.conf
-dpkg -i resulting .deb file; manually edit lilo.conf
-/sbin/lilo; LILO confirms the presence of the new image
-reboot

The target partition is hda5; W2K's bootloader (in hda1) chainloads LILO (hda5's bootsector is listed in C:\boot.ini).

At boot: I can only see and load the stock Knoppix kernel. Can anybody please tell me where I do wrong?

Thanks in advance,
Andrea.
