It's a while since I used coLinux. Can you post (copy & paste) your configuration file?

Welcome to my world, you have to install a distro hdd image.
Even if you do, you may run into my problem http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...-check-774816/

I had Debian "lenny" (when it was testing) running in it.

Thanks. It looks different to my config files, as far as I can remember. Probably different colinux versions. So I can't help really. Have you tried the colinux wiki?

You would be better off starting a new thread, asking your new question, in the Red Hat forum.
