During the installation of SuSE Linux 7.1 with YaST1 you choose Kernel 2.4. While executing LILO the following error message appears:
Added linux *
Fatal: open /boot/initrd_24: No such file or directory
YaST1 wants to integrate the initrd, however it is missing in some systems, e.g. pure IDE-computer.
Switch to console 4 (with key combination Alt+F4) and type:
chroot /mnt
Edit the file /etc/lilo.conf and remove the line containing "/boot/initrd_24". After that execute lilo and continue the installation on console 1 (Alt+F1).
