    Woohoo!!! I can finally boot into my new kernel. I think removing the ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support (IDE) helped, but now my CD drives don't work. Anyways, thanks for your help people.

    Thanks for the help, I actually was able to burn a CD, so all is well. Well, kind of. I'm able to boot an old kernel, but not my newest one. This is an unrelated problem that I talk about here:...

    Cool. Goood to know that it's easy. One question though, by "putting grub on the USB" do you mean just the grub boot loader or do you mean putting a whole knoppix linux CD on the USB drive?
  5. A corrupted MBR is not fun, trust me on this one.

    So, somehow I corrupted my MBR. When my bios is supposed to show lilo instead I just get a long list of "99"s. So no booting into linux or windows. Anyways, I've been looking but I can't find any USB...

    Can't compile a bootable kernel anymore

    I have a SATA harddrive and for some reason I can't compile a kernel that recognizes that, and thus nothing boots. It thinks it's hda when it's really sda.
    In LILO I have:

    thank you for mentioning the /etc/fstab change. I never would have thought of that. Once I changed that to /dev/sda then I got it to work, hdparm -t /dev/sda:

  16. I've tried so much, but i still can't get DMA to work.

    This has come up a billion times before, I can't get DMA to turn on:

  18. What software do i need to convert movie formats?

    What I'm trying to do is find software that can convert pretty much any format into svcd mpeg. I can use vcdimager to make the final scvd.
