Re: LI-2.6.15-1-686 Wont Boot After Modem Driver Inatall Attempts



Thanks Maik for the super quick reply.  I don't have a
live CD as per your
link but will use my rescue disk and try to chroot
just as soon as I read it's manual.  Never tried to
chroot before and that can lead to unpleasant
suprises.  I'll post the results when I get it done. 
Thanks again,

Leonard Chatagnier
