installed rh 6.2 from talking bootdisk, but it's kernel refuses to work properly when copied in from the bootdisk

[Brent Harding]

No, it boots, having dad help me the first time, the nonspeakup kernel it
installed booted, but the speakup kernel gives errors, and gives a message
saying enter root password for maintenance or press ctrl-d to start
normally. Pressing that says automatic reboot in progress, and it does so.
This was using loadlin with the kernel of the rh boot disk. When I try to
mount once I get to maintenance mode, it says /dev/fd0, wrong major or
minor number. It does this with any partition I choose to mount, including
my dos one.
