In what way does the kernel not boot? Does it display any messages?
Does it crash in some way or does it hang?

Do you able to load kernel.GENERIC by pressing TAB while "thingy" just
appeared?
If not, there may be not OS problem, possibly something wrong about your
hardware?
The problem has been resolved. It appears that the kernel was, in fact, booting but it seemed as though it was not because I had commented the console drivers out from the config file. My bad. -- Antonio M. D'souza 725-8002 http://www.quikbox.ca State Changed From-To: open->closed Submitter reckons this was pilot error. |
