Hi all, I am new to this list and have a couple questions related to the installation of my Linux system. I downloaded the devian rescue.bin and root.bin images from the speakup FTP server from the devian/images.144 directory, and cannot get my image which I used rawrite to write to a floppy to boot. My computer skips over the disk as if it's not even present. I then got a boot and root pair from the slackware 8.0 directory, and was able to boot that with no trouble. My problem with the slackware set though is this. After booting, getting speech up and running, and being prompted for the root disk, I put it in and get a kernel panic error that says it can't mount root FS on 02:1C. I tried appending the line root=/dev/fd0 to the command line at boot and get a similar error but this time the address is 02:00. Any suggestions on getting either of these up and running? I would greatly appreciate them. :) Guy
