Have you used the "lowmem" series of bootdisks? I think the difference is that those have a rootdisk on floppy, where the default "rescue" disk tries to load the rootdisk into ram (and then mounts its root from that ramdisk.) IIRC this is mentioned in the installation document. Cheers, Joost -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
