Kernel: Version 2.2.14

k_deflt.rpm: default (pentium) kernel k_eide.rpm: kernel with support for various ide chipsets k_i386.rpm: kernel compiled to support i386 k_laptop.rpm: kernel with APM support k_smp.rpm: kernel with multiprocessor supportThe usually used kernel package for a laptop would be:
k_laptop.rpm
kernel with APM support (approx. 6 MB).
If you had installed a different kernel package, please deinstall this old kernel package at first.
You can check the current used kernel package by executing:
rpm -qf /boot/vmlinuz
The old package can be deinstalled e.g. by using:
rpm -e k_deflt
Afterwards install the new package:
rpm -Uhv /..Pfad../k_laptop.rpm
Now run 'LILO'
, by entering the command /sbin/lilo
.
After the next boot, the PCMCIA-IDE device will be recognized.
Maybe your system needs an initial ramdisk (normally not needed for
laptops). That means an initrd
file can be found in the directory /boot
and in the /etc/lilo.conf
file is an entry: initrd = /boot/initrd
.
In this case, you must also create a new initrd
:
mk_initrd
and running lilo
afterwards.
If you need a PCMCIA-IDE device to be already supported at the installation, please read the support-database article "Installation from or on a PCMCIA-IDE device does not work", http://sdb.suse.de/en/findeisen_pcmcia_ide_patch_inst_64.html.
