Re: [PLUG] Installing Linux Problems



Ian Reinhart Geiser:
When I boot into winders and use loadlin, but it seems to not want to use an initrd bigger than 4mb. I seem to remember things about this with ramdisk max sizes, but lilo has not problems with the same kernel/initrd (save for it cannot find root)

Are you using the latest version of loadlin? Earlier versions could have problems with large kernels (>990K or so). I also played with linld which also usually worked.
