maybe there is a kernel option list for the livecd posted on the forums so |
| 2 |
that you can compare or I think Gustavo puts together the livecd maybe he |
| 3 |
can post it somewhere(not to drag you in Gus). |
| 4 |
If that doesnt pan out start with the base level drivers like the ide |
| 5 |
drivers and such to make sure it is getting to the drives to start reading |
| 6 |
stuff and if you are still getting errors producing logs to help |
| 7 |
troubleshoot. |
| 8 |
without looking at what is going on it is tough to try opint you in the |
| 9 |
right direction. |
| 10 |
Like I said before you have a running system with the livecd kernel so you |
| 11 |
know it is just a matter of configuring your own kernel properly to get it |
| 12 |
running. |
