   Want modeset in 15.0 test   
   14 Feb 22 16:38:11   
   
   From: NoEMail@home.org   
      
   I installed 15.0 on a spare partition and I want to   
   play with it while leaving the rest of the machine   
   still running 14.2. I boot in from the install disk   
      
   huge.s root=/dev/sdc1 initrd= ro vga=791   
      
   but I want modeset to switch the font. It seems   
   that the command runs with no modeset. How can   
   I set modeset to be the default?   
      
   Thanks.   
      
   If memory serves me, earlier versions of slackware   
   did not require a space between rdinit= and the ro.   
   Am I wrong about that?
