HD Install :: In some computers, installation get stucked

Thanks once again Someone.... i´ll try to test it tomorrow... because today i´m f.ck.d up....

i'll download it and then post back the answer... and MAY GOD HELPS US that it will be a good one...

tks

Hello Someone (and everybody).. i tried the kernell that you have uploaded, but it also didn´t work...

I installed DSL in the HD in another box, coppied the boot foldes to the /boot and the 2.4.29 to /lib/modules.
I tried booting this box... just to check if the kernel was ok... and linux booted normally.
So... i take the HD back into the SIS machine, and booted... when I choose the option DSL 800x600, the screen goes black.... the penguim appears in the left top corner and then i get the message: "Kernel Panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:01" and the system stuck....

Someone, did this kernel work on a SIS5595 MoBo?

Does anyone have some other clue?

???
I don´t want to give up on this.... but... i don´t know what else i can do!

Is there a way for me to "ask" for a correction to the DSL team? (in some new version.. if necessary)

thanks again!

It worked with the same chip that you have.
Did you try the other options on the bootup screen?

yes... i tried.... and also didn't work......
(i´m afraid these options are just about the screen resolution, but they also didn't work, anyway)

Does anyone know if it is a known bug in some other distros?

it's only Knoppix specific problem, so you won't have the same problem with slackware based live cd.

Damnsmalllinux 0.5.31 ( or something like that) works with SIS, so try that. Remember that it's really old.
