specifying IO scheduler (otherwise Yoper freezes :/)


Okay, so I installed Yoper on my machine (dual boot with WinXP) and everything seemed to go well. But when I try to boot into Yoper, it freezes at "using cfq io scheduler".

I recall seeing that when you install Yoper, it says at one point "using deadline io scheduler" and that must have worked since I could install Yoper. So I'm trying to force it to use the deadline (or any of the others, if they'll work) scheduler.

I added "elevator=deadline" to my lilo file as such:

Code:
prompt
timeout=60
default=YOS
vga=791
boot=/dev/hda

lba32

bitmap             = /boot/yoper_boot.bmp
bmp-colors         = 1,,0,2,,0
bmp-table          = 120p,173p,1,15,17
bmp-timer          = 254p,432p,1,0,0


image=/boot/yos
label=YOS
        read-only
        root=/dev/hda7
append = "elevator=deadline"
initrd=/boot/initrd-2.6.8.1-3.img


other=/dev/hda1
label=Windows
But Yoper still freezes at "using cfq io scheduler"! Did I not set this value correctly? Or is it being overridden somewhere else? Thanks in advance..

Scott
