Cannot find map file?
Hello all,
I am a little bit worried about this message about not finding
the map file upon bootup. Everything seems *completely* normal except
for this little message. I looked in the kernel sources (2.0.22) to
try and find the reason for it, but had no luck.
This appears after doing a shutdown -r now.
Particulars - new debian install after wiping clean an old dos
and slackware setup. Old setup: dos on hda1, linux root on hda3, where
the lilo boot sector resided. New setup has linux root on hda1, where
I believe the lilo boot sector is (the debian configuration tool
wouldn't have stuck it on the MBR now, would it?)
Should I worry? Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim
PS What should the perms be on /boot/map? I've got 600.
