Re: New Kernel install (II)

[homega@vlc.servicom.es]

Thanks everyone, I got lilo dual booting the two kernels.  I'm having some
trouble since the new kernel does not recognize hdd as a block device, and
therefore I can't mount my iomega zip drive.  I've checked both
/boot/config-2.0.35 and /boot/config-2.0.34, and this might be the cause:

# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEFLOPPY is not set

I thought this kernel option was this other kernel option was the one for the
zip drive:

CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDETAPE=y

Also, during booting I'm getting some warnings: can't locate modules...
one of them is vfat, but I can mount a floppy with `mount -t vfat ...' ???
another is cdrom, but I can mount cdrom.

I ran lsmod and got:

homega:/boot$ lsmod
Module         Pages    Used by

Are there no modules loaded???

Last, if I try to mount a DOS formatted disk, it mounts but:

homega:~# mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /floppy
Unable to load NLS charset cp437(nls_cp437)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^  ???
and the same for `mount -t vfat /dev/fd0 /floppy'
`mount -t ext2 /dev/fd0 /floppy' is working ok.
