I have a problem booting the Fedora-4 kernel on a SCSI machine. (The aic7xxx driver is not loaded.) Is there any way of printing out the kernel messages before the panic occurs? I was reading the Serial-Console HOWTO (dated 2003) but it isn't clear to me if one can use it now with udev, as /dev/lp0 does not seem to be defined sufficiently early. Any advice or suggestions gratefully received. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
