Hi ppl, So here goes....I installed debian/unstable on HPnx9110 andalmost everything works fine, except.... 1. The first line after lilo ('Loading Linux......') takes ages. The dots appear one after the other so slowly, it painful to watch it. The normal boot process appears to be slower than other computers too considering this is 3.2GHz, and other processes run fine and fast.
Try adding compact option to /etc/lilo.conf. Your lilo.conf should look something similar to
boot=/dev/hda3 root=/dev/hda3 compact then run lilo at the command prompt as root. hth raju -- Home page: http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/kk288/index.html Fluid's group: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flumech/
