RE: Can't get Kernel and intrid to start sarge installer
Hi rick, thanks for the response however I attempted a few different
kernel-boot options as I'm not entirely sure what my monitor rate or bit
depth is, however none worked. I'm running a Twin Turbo graphics card
hooked up to a PC 15inch ADI micro scan monitor. Any more help would be
great. This is about the fourth time posting to this list but you are the
first to respond. Thanks.
-Eric

Take a look at this web page:
http://www.jonh.net/lppcfom-serve/cache/1043.html
It describes kernel-boot options that set up video modes.
For example, I have a beige G3 minitower with an "ATI Mach64" video
card with a 14-inch monitor. I use
video=atyfb:vmode:13,cmode:16
which sets color-depth to 16-bits, and video mode to 832 x 624 @ 75 Hz.
What kind of video card does your S900 have?
Enjoy!
Rick
