Re: RTL linux

Charles,

If you are still booting to the old kernel, have you set up lilo or whatever
boot prog you are using to know that the new kernel exists? If you are using
lilo, you need to add a bit into the script pointing it to the new kernel
and then run /sbin/lilo (or wherever lilo lives in Slackware). I don't know
Slackware, but if it has anything comparable to 'linuxconf' then this will
give an easier method of setting up boot parameters.
