| |
i've installed RedHat 6.0 on a four-CPU Intel S450NX. when i build a new kernel and install it, the new kernel always tries to boot from initrd, even though i've built without initrd support and have no initrd= specified for my kernels in /etc/lilo.conf.
only if i specify "root=/dev/sda1" on the LILO: command line does it boot properly. here's my /etc/lilo.conf:
boot=/dev/sda map=/boot/map install=/boot/boot.b root=/dev/sda1 prompt compact timeout=50 read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.3.39 label=test39
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.3.17-bitmap label=bitmap
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.3.17 label=dev17
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.13 label=stable13
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.5-15smp label=linux initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.5-15smp.img
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.5-15 label=linux-up initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.5-15.img
is there something i'm overlooking?
