Could not find kernel image: linux
I setting up a dual boot system Win2k/Linux. I'm attempting to install Red Hat 7.2. The installation proceeds without error but when I attempt to boot I get "Could not find kernel image: linux". If I then type "vmlinuz" at the boot prompt I get "invalid compressed format" when it's trying to uncompress linux.
I've dropped back to a very basic installation but continue to receive the same error. |
1. Read /etc/lilo.conf, find the label that says "label = linux", and note the name of the image.
An entry might look like: image = /boot/bzImage-2.4.16.smp-grs label = linux root = /dev/hda1 or: image = /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.16smp label = linux append = "hdd=ide-scsi" root = /dev/hda1 2. Look in /boot for the corresponding image 3. Open up /etc/lilo.conf, and change the "image = /boot/<imagename>" 4. save, and run "/sbin/lilo -v -t" this will test the config, and verbose any info. 5. If satisfied all looks ok, run "/sbin/lilo -v" to install lilo again. Reboot, check. |
