| 341 | In this case, we assume Syslinux is incompatible with your boot
|
|---|
| 342 | media. For some reason, some BIOSes just don't like Syslinux. If you
|
|---|
| 343 | find this to be the case for your computer, please use '-L' to force
|
|---|
| 344 | Mondo to use LILO instead of Syslinux as the boot loader for its
|
|---|
| 345 | CD/floppies. (NB: This has nothing to do with which boot loader your <I>hard
|
|---|
| 346 | drive</I> uses.) Also, it is a good habit to specify your tape
|
|---|
| 347 | streamer with '-d <device>'. You don't usually need to but it's
|
|---|
| 348 | good to be on the safe side. Some computers call your tape streamer
|

| 349 | /dev/osst0, some call it /dev/ftape, ...</P>
