It doesn't look like the boot has gotten anywhere far enough to write error messages anyway. I was following the instructions in the debianREADME. Lilo should be close to correct since I can boot to my old kernel. The various make processes terminated normally. Any clues as to how to diagnose this or any guesses as to what I might have missed. TIA, Paul ScottThat always happens to me when I choose a wrong processor type. Maybe you could check that?
Thanks. It's running right now! I had PIII-Celeron selected and this is a K6III used "make menuconfig" the first time and "make xconfig" to find and fix the problem. "make xconfig" is much cleaner but it would not let me make any setting for "parallel port support"/"Support for PCMCIA management for PC-style ports." I had to ge back to make menuconfig to change that. I'll have to see if that needs a bug report.
