In upgrading machine #2 (see earlier post on problems with machine #1) from debian 1.1 to 1.2, and rebooting. I got an error on reboot something about "unable to initialize console" and the machine hung. I thought it may have been a problem with my upgrade.
Later I decided to wipe out the drive, repartition, and install a fresh minimum Debian 1.2 system. Now I can reboot the system fine from the hard drive (via loadlin on the DOS side), but when I reboot from a "rescue" disk (bootbable kernel disk), the system hangs as before failing to find the console. I don't have a clue how to fix this problem. -- /------------------------------------------------------------------\ | James D.
