Well it seems that supporting IDE devices isn't the default at 2.4.18. I had to turn them on, as Jerome suggested. Strange system. scsi emulation still doesn't work. It can't find the cdrom driver. Of course it can't you fool. I compiled it into the kernel. What a piece of trash. Thanks,

try dmesg Jim, that will output the startup messages to your monitor :-) that will allow you to view all the messages. I'm not familiar with loadlin at all (i've only ever used lilo b4 so i'll leave loadlin issues to those that know what they're talking about). Dave -Original Message-
