Among other things, it advises the user to set the kernel filename (kernfile) variable to /vmlinuz. However, in the installation process the kernel is placed into /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.27-netwinder and no /vmlinuz symlink is created, so the system is unbootable with this setting. Either this screen should be corrected, or /vmlinuz -> /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.27-netwinder symlink should be created.What does ls -l /boot say? -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/
Hi Martin,Sorry for the delay, I've had some hardware failures to deal with. Here's the output of ls -l /boot on a freshly-installed netwinder:
