Hi folks, I know it is slightly off topic from those of you who have full installations of Linux, but I recieved a non-deliverable from one of the Zipspeak lists. My problem is Loadlin will not boot Zipspeak up on my S C S I drive. I am running the following line in the linux.bat file: \loadlin\loadlin \linux\vmlinuz root=/dev/sda6 speakup_synth=txprt speakup_ser=0 rw The error message I get is something like the following: kernal panic: vfs: cannot load fs on root 08:06 I have tried most if not all the combinations of drive a and b with each of 8 partition numbers. According to Matt Campbell's tutorial, my only harddrive, S C S I, extended, second logical (drive e:) partition should be sda6. My SCSI card is an Adaptec AHA-1540c/1542c on port 330hex irq 11. I guess my question is about where I can edit a file to recognize my Adaptec card or does someone have another answer to my problem? I should also note that my bios does not give a drive type because everything is handled by the card. --- Ross Eadie Voice: (204) 339-5287
