ah. well, a few buddies just told me i should. thats all, but i still got issues, i posted the scsi issue in a new thread. as it is, i'm still trying to find a 32bit version of loadlin anyone got any ideas?

okay, i'm using an AHA 2940AU scsi adapter and that is apparently supported. unfortunately it wont pick up the scanner i am trying to get to work. its a HP 6100c. what is going on? i'm pulling my hair out. i've tried modprobing every scsi port i can find. anyone got any ideas?

Hi, i need help. i've just started with linux and i'm having a few woes. I'm using slackware linux 9.1 and its my secondary OS in a dual boot with XP Pro. (i know, windows is evil, but its necessary) anyway, i got three worries 1) how am i supposed to make a boot disk when it says its over 1.44Mb? 2) how do i tell if a device (such as a SCSI card) is picked up by the OS? 3) what does it mean when people tell me to try "recompile the kernel"? I guess i jumped in at the deep end. Eventually i hope to create a dos(or "XP") menu option to boot into linux like in boot.ini from windows.
