While configuring the virtual machine for linux I made the type of hard disk as SCSI and using Bus Logic drivers. I think the problem is with the buslogic drivers. When I put them in the kernel, there is a message at the end of make install .. " No module Bus Logic found for the kernel 2.6.16.14 , continuing anyway" The bus logic drivers are broken in this version. I have a patch which fixes this issue which is at ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.0/2.6. 0-mm1/broken-out/buslogic-update.patch I'll apply the patch and hope it helps :) anupam ~ Thanks and Regards Rohit Hooda -- In the beginning was the lambda, and the lambda was with Emacs, and Emacs was the lambda. -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
