Ehmm.... GRUB?



Why don't try all that again, but this time do an install of LILO.. methinks it might at least work better for now, and then once you get everything set up and working to your liking you can worry about installing GRUB.

P.S.: I would not have that free space on there... just use cfdisk and erase all partitions (since you don't have XP on there anymore anyway), set up one primary ext2 Linux partition (make it / for now; you can change that later), and set up one primary Linux swap partition (use as much space as is left after you set up the first); but above all, make sure you install LILO, and install it to the MBR.

Not that it's very important or helpful, but

KDE
Gnome
XFCE
WindowMaker
FVWM2
FVWM95

on mine - I had to add fluxbox from /extras. But my CD was from a magazine that does have trivial differences from the mirrors. Think the wm's are the same, though.

Of other non-importance:

Quote:
-- slackware/ This directory contains the core software packages
| for Slackware 9.0.

|-- a/ The A (base) package series.
|-- ap/ The AP (applications) package series.
|-- d/ The D (development) package series.
|-- e/ The E (GNU Emacs) package series.
|-- f/ The F (FAQ/Documentation) package series.
|-- gnome/ The GNOME package series.
|-- kde/ The KDE package series.

`-- y/ The Y (BSD games) package series.

Note that for space reasons, the KDEI (KDE i18n) series, and the K (Linux
kernel source) series could not be included on this ISO, and I apologize for
the inconvenience. If you need KDE translations or the pre-patched (with
ext3 and ptrace fixes) kernel source package, you can pick them up here:

ftp://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackwar...0/slackware/k/
(from ftp://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackwar...iso/README.TXT)

ok i can get in, but it says to go into graphical (which is alot easier for me) to enter vga= parameter (like 791) but it says it cant find kernal image. Also the only way i can get it to work is to put in the bootdisk and mount the harddrive like that.
