0 kernel rescue disk :-P.
The standard rescue disks in freshmeat all seem to be 2.2 based for the
moment,
so I might need to make my own.
does anyone know where i can find a compiled image and tell me how to
install it on a disk with a windows machine?
Caoilte
rt for reminding me.

Take a look at Ranish Partition Manager. It's a DOS program (open
source), but it can do what you want. The newer version (beta 2.38) can
handle disks over 8.4 GB.

I've been playing around with multi-OS installation (Debian/Window$98)

the `cfdisk' program the installer uses. More specifically, I would

I believe that you also need to run the "rdev" script on the diskette,
after copying the new kernel over. Also, the scripts expects that /mnt
is where you have it mounted.

I tried with the bzImage file on SuSe and copied it to the 2.1.4 boot

As I am stuck on my Thinkpad with Debian, while other distributions
happily boot (SuSe, Tom's RootBoot for example), I would like to know if
and how can I "graft" the kernel on the working boot floppies on
Debian's rescue.

Use the disk you install Debian from. This one is even called "rescue

Hi, All
looks like i got a problem - system (Deb 2.0) hangs
running /etc/rc.boot scripts. Therefore
i do have few questions:

Any help is greatly appreciated
