It never finished booting. I was able to log in only once. There Iused vi to edit the lilo.conf file. I used ctrl-r to refresh the screen when the modprobes fell like rain. I must not have done something correctly. The kernel does not load all the way. I need a way to unload all the modules before booting or going into single user, from a rescue cd-rom or boot disk.
