TO mount to the correct /root partition, you can pass kernel parameters if
you use LILO boot manager when u see LILO prompt. Such as
LILOboot: linux root=/dev/hda_X
When RH8.0 booting is OK, make sure not to mount RH7.3 / as RH8.0's mount
point for checking filesytems on RH7.3. Checking moun
You must declare your rh8 mount point in /etc/fstab,
and then, you must go to /etc/lilo.conf and write on
it the new /dev/hdc.
To mount your RH 7,3 try mount -t file_system
/dev/hdaXY /mount_point
Where X is your hard disk, and Y your partition number

Try booting in single mode. Then when it says / is already mounted, you
can cat the mtab file and see what is in /etc/fstab and in /proc (as well
as your logs)

Well, I'm not sure what the problem is, but did you make a boot/rescue
disk when you installed? If not, you could download Tom's Root Boot
disk instead. Then perhaps you could boot from the floppy and learn
something.
BTW, you can find Tom's Root Boot disk at

Mikkel,
Well I did run the command, and it gave me a prompt and it said nothing else.
So do you think it might be a BIOS issue then? Have you heard of any issues
with the Intel 440GX+ MB? I have not check out Intels page yet for an updated
one. Sounds like it might be something that is nee

Let me see i
I did get the floppy to boot as it should. It just would not run the resume on
the box. When it did run I got to the point that it said LI and stopped.
It took a hard reset to get it to run again?

Mikkel,
Thank you. One thing that I did find was that I was able to boot from the floppy and
get into the machine as Root. All my files are there and things that I had left on
the desktop is still in the place that it was left. I did still need to boot off the
floppy to get in. So I am not

Well I am running, it took booting off a floppy to get up and going. Now I need to
figure out why
it did this. I read that it could be files that are corrupt in /sbin/init. How can I
tell if this is
the case or not? Also what would I use to replace them?
Thank you for the help.
I have tried to boot with the recovery floppy and it is giving me a lot of information:
First it is telling me that Insert ROOT floppy disk that is to be loaded into RAM.

Mikkel,
I am doing a update on the machine. So we will see. It is going to take about
40 minutes or more. I am adding some new packages also. Since it needs to
install. It is midnight my time, so I am off to bed. I will be on first thing in the
AM.
Thank you for the help.

Mikkel,
When you say make a boot disk, during the install when I first did it?
I am not sure if I did that or not, but I think I still have the boot disk that
came with it when I purchased it. Will that do?

Nothing is working like we would like... (See below the message
