Hi, I am a newbie so please bear with the me if the question is basic. ( point me to the right FM in that case) I had kernel 2.4.16 installed and had finally gotten everything including sound and the display configured.
I then decided to compile a kernel and see how easy it was(compiling wasnt tough, getting it to work is a different story altogether.). The compilation and installation of the kernel went without a problem, and i made the right entry into /etc/lilo.conf ( i think ) as i followed the document verbatim. I would also like to add that the machine i am using is a dual boot win 2k/linux and that setup has been working for a long time. I use the windows bootloader at startup which then points to lilo. The problem is that after running lilo and copying the bootsect.lnx over to the windows mount, now when i reboot and select linux, I get a blank screen. Using a rescue disk i can get to the shell. I tried to remove the new entry from /etc/lilo.conf, but that didnt help either. Could anyone tell me what would be a good place to start looking to figure out what the problem could be.
