DON'T TRY THIS IN RAM-MULINUX.....
EXT-2 install
If you have an EXT-2 install with lilo, then follow theise steps:
1. Download the kernel
2. copy it to /boot directory
3. edit /etc/lilo.conf and add following lines
image=/boot/mulinuz.apm
label=mulinuz.apm
append="root=%INSERT YOUR ROOT PARTITION HERE%"
4. if you have a IBM thinkpad, you also need to add following after
root= "floppy=thinkpad" so the append line would be
append="root=/dev/* floppy=thinkpad"
5. if you like edit the default value, so that the new kernel is booted
automatically..
UMSDOS installation:
1. Copy the kernel to the same directory that contains the
loadlin.exe and the old kernel.
2. edit linux.bat so that it will load the mulinuz.apm kernel insted of
mulinuz kernel (just chance that one word and save under different
name..)
