Booting the wrong Kernel - Knoppix, Slackware, LiLo

[rwcitek]

+ uname -va
Linux Knoppix 2.6.11 #3 SMP Mon May 2 00:19:56 CEST 2005 i686 GNU/Linux
+ cat /etc/knoppix-version
3.8.2 2005-05-05

Interesting. Did you use this CD to install Knoppix to /dev/hdc8? If so, this is puzzling. 3.8.2 doesn't even have a 2.4 kernel.

After you modified lilo.conf in Slack, did you rerun lilo?

Lastly, can you boot into the installed knoppix (the one on /dev/hdc8/) and run these commands:

( set -x
uname -va
cat /etc/knoppix-version
cat /proc/partitions
df -HTl
ls -la /boot/
