Total wild guess here, hopefully someone can confirm/deny, but isn't there something about -readonly in the grub boot entries that isn't quite right in the doc? Can you be a bit more specific? No option by that name exist, maybe you mean --read-only? What document are you refering too? As you see, there are to many questions left to be able to answer your question, please try to be me more precises in the future.
I had a "--readonly" option in my menu.lst file like this (to work around a bug that seems to have gone away):
module /hurd/ext2fs.static --readonly \ And removing the "--readonly" let me boot correctly. I think this is what was happening: 1. The console server looked for /dev/console 2. /dev was empty 3. The console server tried to write to /tmp/console 4. (3) failed due to "--readonly", causing the system to crash Thanks to both of you for the help. =) -- _______________________________________________ / | / Tom Hart | | hartte13@BrandonU.ca | \ "rmTFM - Build consistent interfaces." | \_______________________________________________|
