There is a bug in lilo that prevents it to load too big initrds. Please show the output of 'ls -la /boot' to check for this. If this is the case you can only try to make a smaller initrd. Setting "MODULES=dep" in /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf might help. Regards, Andrei -- If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough. (Albert Einstein)
