Background: Trying to install Debian 2.0 (linux 2.0.34) on Win95 system with AHA2840 SCSI card. Originally had BRKADINT errors looping. Found alternate kernal (may be modified from bo version) on ftp://phys.ocean.dal.ca/users/rhogee/Debian/new-version/linux which got past that problem and allowed me to complete the installation process (I think). Using System Commander, I try to boot Linux from the root partition I just initialized during intallation. Now I'm back to the BRKADINT errors looping over and over again. Clearly, the kernal that fixed my installation problems didn't get copied to the hard drive. Questions: 1) Can someone give me step-by-step instructions on how to make sure the kernal I install with is the kernal I boot with? 2) Can the 2.0.34 be patched with the latest (pre13?) updates, or do I need to abandon Debian's distribution? 3) Specifically how does one apply a patch during a from scratch installation? >From a freshly installed version? If there's any documentation out there telling how to do this, I haven't been able to find it. Any help greatly appreciated! -Jerry ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Certus Consulting Group | Specializing in Integrated Circuit Antioch, CA 94509 | Design and Verification, Logic (925)757-0685 | Synthesis, Fault Grading, and <http://www.certus.com> | Test Development To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-aic7xxx" in the body of the message
