Try mounting the slink partition (e.g. as /mnt/slink) and changing the slink image line to something like "image=/mnt/slink/boot/vmlinuz-2.0.36" I've never tried this myself, but it should work. Even if it doesn't work, it won't hurt anything to try. -- finger for GPG public key. 29 Nov 1999 - new email address added to gpg key
