Yes, I did do a 'cp bzImage /boot/vzlinuz-2.4.17'
I tried the:
cp bzImage /dev/fd0 && rdev /dev/fd0 /dev/hda5
to no success. It does the same thing as before, just slower since it's
from a floppy (reboots the machine). This time I did configure the kernel a
bit and recompile with still no success. If you have anymore options or
suggestions, please feel free to pass them on.
Here's my machine setup since you asked:
Intel 233
192 meg Ram
10 gb Maxtor HDD (partitioned as hda1:/boot hda5:/ hda?:/swap)
Intel chipset (PCIset)
Here's my lilo.conf file:
===============================
boot = /dev/hda
message = /boot/boot_message.txt
prompt
timeout = 1200
change-rules
reset
vga = normal
image = /vmlinuz
root = /dev/hda5
label = Linux
read-only
image = /vmlinuz-2.4.17
root = /dev/hda5
label = Linux-2.4.17
read-only
================================
It's got to be my configuration or lilo setup (I think) because I can
install Slackware,Redhat and others on it just fine with their default
setup. Anyways, please pass on any info you think might help.

do configure the kernel! Do not use defaults!
when you did cp bzImage to /boot
I hope you did cp bzImage /boot/vzlinuz-2.4.17
then try this cp bzImage /dev/fd0
rdev /dev/fd0 /dev/hda5
try to boot from floppy
if that is ok , reconfigure kernel try to boot it.
If it still don't boot perhaps your bios can't reach kernel
for some reason.
if still don't work post description on
what hardware / disk ?
regards,
Zoran
