| Posted: 09 Aug 2004 01:35 PM PDT Thanks for all your help. I finally came to the same conclusion that it is a winmodem. Unfortunately, the people at most computer stores know nothing about Linux and so didn't tell me that it was a winmodem. Thanks again for all your help. Clive Dove wrote: |

The second time I put it on MBR and it didn't work either. I also checked hardware compatibility, my model is not on the list. But checking item by item, I found that most parts should be fine.

So I stripped lilo.conf down to just the Linux partition and made the wait time 30 instead of the default 300. Here is the rest of the drill: 1. Make /hda2 the boot partition via cfdisk. 2. Run lilo 3. "dd if=/dev/hda2 of=bootsect.lnx bs=512 count=1" 4. Copy the file bootsect.lnx to the /hda1 partition, either directly (fat partition) or indirectly via floppy (ntfs partition.) 5. boot Linux via floppy and make /hda1 the boot partition via cfdisk. 6. Edit the file on /hda1 boot.ini to include a line for Linux. I edited mine directly from Linux via Vim, but if ntfs is in play one has to boot Windows, "attrib -r boot.ini", edit the file and "attrib +r boot.ini" Here is my Windows boot.ini: ================================================== ======= [boot loader] timeout=30 default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT [operating systems] multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT="Microso ft Windows 2000 Professional" /fastdetect C:\bootsect.lnx="Linux" multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINNT="Microso ft Windows 2000 NTFS" /fastdetect ================================================== ======== I have two Windows partitions (one fat, one ntfs) and I made the fat one on hda1 the default. (I may experiment with making Linux the default.) I put the Linux boot line second on the list. I still get an error message if I try to boot windows 2k via lilo. Hence the above lashup. John c. |

| Posted: 05 Aug 2004 02:09 PM PDT Thanks for clearing that up. I started with Redhat 4.0 and set up a number of company intranets using Linux. Then it was back into the Windows world. I never could convince the company to use Linux for anything else. Hence I have little day-to-day experience on Linux and a lot of anitquated, confused, knowledge. I am currently running Redhat 9.0 and would appreciate any and all polite corrections when I wander from the truth. To paraphrase Mark Twain; It's not the things I don't know that bother me. It's the things I know for sure that are just plain wrong. Mark Pure Thought "Nico Kadel-Garcia" <net> wrote in message news:com... |

If the drive has already entered in sleep mode while the laptop is powered on, then it has already made its head-park click sound and spinned down, so you don't hear a click or spin-down sound at power-off.
