Here is my grub...
default = 1
timeout = 10

title Slackware
root (hd0,6)
vga = 773
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-ide-2.4.26 append="hdb=ide-scsi" root=/dev/hda7 ro

My cute penguin dissapear. However when I use lilo with default config, it show up. So what's wrong????

Grub uses 'append'? Try:
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-ide-2.4.26 hdb=ide-scsi vga=773 root=/dev/hda7 ro

For my part, my grub kernel parameter line looks like this :

Code:

kernel /boot/vmlinuz-ide-2.4.26 root=/dev/hda7 ro 4 hdb=ide-scsi vga=773 video=vesa:ywrap

video=vesa:ywrap enables scrolling in framebuffer console by using shift + page up / page down

i always thought that the penguin/no penguin was just a vesa framebuffer/standard vga thing. am i wrong in thinking this?

You're right. Buf if you don't enable the vesa framebuffer by using the wrong syntax in the configuration in your bootmanager the tux won't show I guess.
