    syslinux.cfg and userdef

    I used knoppix-customize (the windows version ) and besides changing the default language I changed the parameters of the diferent labels so it scans for the home and the saved configuration on boot time. I also changed the tail of the file to look like this.

    LABEL noscan
    APPEND ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init lang=es apm=power-off hda=scsi hdb=scsi hdc=scsi hdd=scsi hde=scsi hdf=scsi hdg=scsi hdh=scsi vga=791 initrd=miniroot.gz nomce quiet BOOT_IMAGE=knoppix
    KERNEL vmlinuz
    APPEND ################################################## ################################################## ##################

    to load the default configuration (without scaning) but when at boot time I enter the parameter noscan it fails and says kernel panic and other stuff, what can be happening?. Is the label userdef mandatory to de end?. I woud appreciate some help.

    Re: syslinux.cfg and userdef

    --Here's what my syslinux.cfg file looks like, but don't try to copy it directly, it's for hdinstall:

    Code:
    default knoppix
    #prompt 1
    #timeout 50
    label knoppix
      kernel krnl2422
      append root=/dev/hde3 ro vga=ext apm=power-off hda=scsi hdb=scsi hdc=scsi hdd=scsi hde=scsi hdf=scsi hdg=scsi hdh=scsi nomce idebus=66
    --Please note, my kernel's actual filename is "krnl2422" in order to fit into DOS 8.3 filename limits.

    --I think maybe you could put the "kernel" line 1st after the "label" line and ditch the append that has all the #'s in it, but me == no expert on syslinux.
