I'm confused about root's bash profile. In vt1, the directories /sbin &

It's not at scd0 or scsi0 and I'm not sure how to find it.

Hi. I wonder if anybody has any advice on network configuration,
because I can't get eth1 to pass any traffic out of my router box.
I've got box1's eth0 connected to my dsl line through the dsl

Does anyone know how I can prevent the kernel from doing this device
search? I can't seem to find where to turn it off in the kernel

I've got Linux on a secondary IDE hard drive(secondary master).
When I set BIOS boot sequence to D:A:SCSI all I get is "LI" and
the system hangs. Any ideas? Can I spiff up that boot record
without messing anything up, or is LILO corrupted? The system
runs fine when I use a boot floppy.
