While it is possible to modify your syslinux.cfg file, it is also possible to simply type in the command as listed in my other post.

Just type it in when you get to the "boot:" prompt.

Of course if a modified syslinux.cfg works for you, all the better.

I got root!
:-p
Oh well freezes...

I think i have a hd problem ..after INIT 5 i get a FAT: bogus 62333 or something error.
Using fdisk or xfdisk making FAT32 and linux doenst fix it..i try now
e2fsprogs ... no gnuparted bootdisc ...

Ok i think the error:"bogus logical sector size 63222" has something todo with the kernel?

The error at Google

And i finally were able to ext2 partition with tomsrtbt-2.0.103.dos.
and used linux fdisk (http://damnsmalllinux.org/cgi-bin/forums/ikonboard.cgi?;act=ST;f=5;t=6930)

With dsl 1 or 2 i get to the root prompt but after a moment it freeze.

I tried netBSD laptop bootdisk and get a similar error http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/11/message/16255/thread
