Hi,
Everyone can relax and stop yelling at me that 2.X features can't help 1.2 and that I'm wearing yesterdays underwear.
Danny ter Haar provided the patch that confirmed what I learned from the 2.X code and that 2 lines were what I needed at a minimum. (25 if I want the fancy "panic=").
I'm amazed at the attitude of "Get off 1.2". If you notice, there was no need for such an option in 1.2, since it was quite stable. I guess 2.X isn't as stable and needs such an option. I need it since I have a disk glitch that I can't get to to fix and would rather just have the machine reboot. My brand new Pentium Pro 200/64M system will be running 2.0.22, and DAMN sure lilo will have append="panic=30" incase it wants to get cranky on me.
Thanks.....(to Danny) -- "Over the UUCP link, out the ethernet, through the media converter, down the fiber, off a router, down the 56K, past my ISP...nothing but Net" - with poetic license from Dave Owen of IBM
