It boots my old Linux from the IDE-disk. Hi again, and sorry if my mail bothers you I hope I am almost done. I guess the install disk with the replaced vmlinuz was booting the current installation and not continueing with the Red Hat installation program, since there was no RAM-disk support in the 2.0.35 kernel, that I compiled and placed at the disk. So I've recompiled and no the installation program comes further, boots, and after few questions asks me for the "supplementary disk". But when I insert it, I get the error message "mount: not a block device", which probably means not supported file system (though console shows "mounting ... ext2 ..." which actually IS in that kernel). So maybe someone has an idea? Some option, that I am missing when compiling the kernel?
