I'm installing 2.1.6-RELEASE via ftp. After doing a full install of source plus a handful of packages, I reboot to SCSI disk (instead of the boot floppy for install) and load the new kernel - except the new kernel appears to be a copy of the boot.flp! Reboot to kernel.GENERIC results in the same. I can't shell out to csh or anything to build a new shell by hand, and what's worse is that when the install kernel comes from the drive then the system mounts read only! Any ideas? Am I missing something painfully obvious?? Thanks in advance. -David
