Hi, I couldn't find a /boot directory on the floppy. After reading the help for 'kget' it seemed to indicate that the file needs to be called kernel.config and placed in the root directory of the floppy. I tried editing the file called /stand/vanilla and removing sections of the file that weren't relevant to my config. I then saved this edited version as kernel.config on the root of the floppy. Nothing was different when I rebooted the floppy - I was still presented with the kernel config menu again. Has anyone got any other ideas as to how I can stop the kernel config screen coming up and specify my configuration? Thanks. --- Doug White <dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu> wrote: > On Fri, 4 Aug 2000, [iso-8859-1] Paul Jansen wrote: > > > As far as the kernel configuration goes, I'm not > > editing files directly to do this (I don't know > what > > files to edit and what goes in them anyway).
