wierd thing just happend to me. I've been runnning linux for about 4months
with the usual rpobelsm.. anyway, yesterday I gota new Ide drive, and dropped
it into my 486, which also ahs 2 scsi drives in it .. fine.. no prob.
I rebooted, did a mk2efs on the ide, even mounted it to /mnt
cool.. then, today I was going to come back and reisntall my system
onto the Ide. (the scsi drives give me time outs), but for some reason
whenever I try to boot off of my boot this, it gets to
the end of Loading ........
and then reboots the machine again... and it will keep doing this over and
over and over... I even pulled out the ide again, but that didn't help any..
I can stil boot off of an a1.3 disk, but that doesn't really help me any..
eeven though I suppose I could try to make another boot disk.. but
hmmm.. well, I'll try that tomorrow :( ..
I realize this will probbaly fix the error, but I'm just wondering what
could possibly cause and error like this :)
thanks,
ian
