not an idea really but further experience |

Since LiveDvD-10.1 boots, albeit buggily, on the netbook. I tried to |
4 |
use the kernel config provided with it. I ran make oldconfig then |
5 |
opened up the menu and whittled away the extraneous modules, built the |
6 |
new kernel, installed it and rebooted. This time, after a flurry of |
7 |
red exclamation points, it reached the login and crashed there. |

Is it feasible that I should go back in and compile in that kernel log |
10 |
option, what's it called? Then after it crashes, reboot into the |
11 |
working kernel, and see if that log has been created? Hey, I guess |
12 |
that counts as an idea :) |
13 |
|
14 |
BTW, the major problem with the LiveDvD is the tendency for the |
15 |
syslog(?) console to bleed into all the other consoles -- messages |
16 |
just popped onto the screen. |
