Hello everyone, havent been here in a while.

I just got a new laptop.

Dell 6000
1.5 Pentium M
512 DDR2
60 SATA Drive

Ive gone through about 6 or 7 distros on this all of them have "issues".

So i return to my favorite of Slackware.

When I installed slack it reconized my drives as /dev/hda (slack on /dev/hda4)

I compiled a new kernel 2.6.11.9 to included wifi stuff and sata support.

my lilo.conf

originally had

windows at /dev/hda
2.4 at /dev/hda4
2.6 at /dev/hda4

when i booted i got no VFS panic, so I changed to
windows ar /dev/hda
2.4 at /dev/hda4
2.6 at /dev/sda4

now when i boot I get and ext2 error and i wants me boot into init1 and fix it. Im not sure what i need to do at this point. When I originally installed i formatted the linux parts with ext3.

Ill try to get the exact error when i boot back into slack, right now im in windows so i can use wireless

When I started using the new scsi sata drivers, my device names changed, so I had to get out the liveCD and mess with fstab until it worked.
Like hdc changed to sda and so forth...
