dear list members i tested ani today on two different systems: dell gx200 and dell gx240. with the gx200 the bood cd was simply ignored although i have set up the cd-rom to be the first in the boot sequence. o.k. this is a scsi system and i cannot find documentation anywhere if ani must be configured for this special case or not. i only read that scsi support is built in the kernel now. do i need to make any changes? the gx240 did start booting but then it showed a kernel panic because it could not mount the disk. my monitor is too small or ani booted to fast i could not read the error message properly (something about ncr...). i don't want to offend the developers with the following, it's just an ani-newbe question;-) why don't you use knoppix or some other distributions and put ani on these? i had no problem to boot knoppix on both gx240 and gx200; all devices were recognized without problems. with such a distribution you would have devices support for free and could concentrate on the other stuff. please forgive me if this is a stupid question because there are technical reasons which i don't know yet. regards, marc |
