Re: [coLinux-users] coLinux only starts 50% of the time

Hmm - although your message was directed at Jason, I will give you my
info too - in the hope that it will aid with working this one out. I
will look into booting without initrd. I must admit to it being a
standard gentoo image, and I really have not played with the boot
settings.

I shutdown one of two ways - either by using "shutdown -h now" from a
console as root, or using stop service from the windows service
manager. Either method leaves me in the same situation. Next time I
shut down (I am in the middle of using it for some testing and
development currently) I will try the single user mode tip and see
what the results are.

I have colinux set up as an automatic service on my windows, with the
hope that when I boot my windows machine, colinux comes up as well (as
there are services that I regularly use on it), but it normally fails,
and has to be started again manually.
