Would also be very helpful.
That will tell which version of the kernel you are running.
But, a fubar lilo config, more than anything sounds likely.
The output of ls -l /vmlinuz is:
lrwxrwx 1 root root 24June3.0 01:55 /vmlinuz (right arrow)
/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.19pre17
I obviously do not understand file /boot/vmlinuz-<tab> because I could not
make it work.
One important fact that I mentioned in much earlier postings is that until
last summer, I could go online with any version of linux that I tried.
Then, none of them would work. Since my ISP administrator has established
that there is nothing wrong with my connection, the trouble has to be
somewhere in my computer. Whatever the trouble, it affects all versions of
linux, but Windows98 and BEOS go online.
