[plug] Question about the boot process.

[Dion]

Hi I have a question for the clever Pluggers out there.  I am wondering 
about what is happening at each point in the boot process relative to 
screen output.
I have been fiddling with compiling a 2.5.62 kernel under Debian 3.0  
once complete and the lilo has been updated, I try to boot the kernel.
It begins booting with screen output

Loading Linux 2.5.61........................

and goes no further than that.  At this point is the Kernel still being 
copied to memory?? or unpacked?? I am trying to figure where to look for 
the point of failure.

Cheers.
D.
