I've been using Slackware 2.3 for some time now and I have just replaced
my scsi adaptor to a buslogic 747s. The address that the default kernel
supports is not one of the ones that I want to use, so I re-compiled the 
kernel (a task that I have done many times before) and I have found that
my system refuses to boot. It gets to the LILO at the top of the screen,
and I'm waiting for the ....... to appear but nothing happens, then the
machine reboots (very strange!?) but if I boot the kernel of floppy
the system starts up fine.

Does any one know what I've done - it's most puzzling and I've got no
ideas.

Thanks.


Matt.

P.S. - could you please reply via Email, as I don't get too much chance
to read news.
