Kernel panic... :-(
Hello all!
I just installed the 2.4.18 kernel on my Woody, now it doesn't even
boot. First I ran it using the floppy with the new image (or so I
thought it was like this:
---
Loading...................
Uncompress Linux....
ran out of input data
-- System halted
---
I am running SuSE 8.0 on this same box and lilo is SuSE's, the Debian
part looks like this:
---
image = /data2/vmlinuz
initrd = /data2/initrd.img
label = Debian
root = /dev/hdb10
---
/data2 is where Woodys /boot is
What happens now when I boot with lilo from MBR is that the screen just
goes black at once and reboots immediately.
What confuses me a bit is how it looks in the Debian /boot folder:

This is quite a lot of stuff! The symlinks vmlinuz and inird.img point
to the *-k7 one.
The installation I did was just:
$apt-get install kernel-image-2.4.18
and I thought that should do it, obviously I must have missed something
here.
I'm trying to move over from SuSE to Debian so this is a little
frustrating... :-/
I'm thankful for all the help I can get on this.
Cheers,
Helgi Örn
