Hi.
This might be wrong mailinglist, but I don't know else to to.
I am having a Dell Optiplex GX240, 512 MB RAM, ATI RAGE 128. I am using Gentoo GNU/Linux.
I have installed module-init-tools-0.9.7. I have difficulties in booting development kernels. I am using GRUB as boot-loader, and can choose between different kernel-2.4 series and kernel-2.5.
I am passing root=/dev/hda3 to all kernels.
My screen turns black and the computer reboots, when I try to boot a development kernel. I havent't applied Rusty's patch for PCI and USB, because I thought it was for kernel-2.5.50. Is it necessary?
I'm using pretty much the same config-file in kernel-2.5 as in kernel-2.4. I have tried to disable all framebuffer support, but nothing happened.
Should I try another version of GRUB?
How should the config-file for kernel-2.5.5x look like?
I am trying out development kernels, because I like being in bleeding edge, when it comes to computers. Have to challenge myself...:-)
Cheers,
Ole J.
