I get a "Warning: unable to open an initial console." when I use the
rescue disk to boot into my root partition. It just sticks there and
doesn't do anything. It must be something I need to put in the lilo
parameters, anyone knows what would fix this?
lilo.conf is the default one, I haven't touched it except for what the
installation program did to it. I stripped the comments:
lba32
boot=/dev/hda
root=/dev/hda5
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
delay=20
vga=normal
default=Linux
image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
read-only
image=/vmlinuz.old
label=LinuxOLD
read-only
optional
This is all the active lines for lilo.conf in /target/etc/
Thanks!
