lilo just accept “noathlon” core parameters . [kernel panic] [quot]
Q: using RedHat 7.2 and just installed. I must say to start with the RH “noathlon” switch otherwise I get a kernel panic error. The problem is that once I add = “noathlon append” to lilo.conf it wont recognize, and I still end up hitting ctrl-x and manually send noathlon. I add the changes using vi, type “lilo-v” to stick or whatever jumps back and say “duplicate line 16. There is no double line though. Everyone knows what the deal is?
Re:The line should be append="mem=nopentium"
Re:<<
<< Man page of what? Man LILO doesnt tell me anything other than switches for the LILO command. >>
man lilo.conf, forgot to mention that 
edit: was just looking at the man page myself, looks like you just use a space to seperate them. i.e.:
append="crapoption=1 vga=1 poop=true" >>
Ok it works, cept now im getting a weird error about my cd-rw on boot but it goes by too fast, and I cant find it in the logs. Its still seems to work though…Anyways thx!

Re:you cant have two append lines AFAIK. try seperating them with commas, i.e. append="crap, poop, fart" (not sure on this one)….really the man page should tell you what to use to seperate them.
Re:This worked when I used GRUB but wont with LILO. Here (http://www.redhat.com/support/resources/gotchas/7.2/) are the instructions I used. I already have an append="hdc=ide-scsi" for my CD-RW, so I tried adding "noathlon" to the same line but that didnt work either, unless of course I have the syntax wrong. Help me out here…
