These days I have tested l4con on my machine. First I just move the l4con package into my L4Linux directory and modify my menu.lst, but I can't get the result. Then I copy the menu.lst from the wiki, and it's ok. Now I have several questions and hope someone helps me. This is my own menu.lst title L4Linux26/Fiasco+dope kernel /boot/L4Linux/bootstrap modaddr 0x06000000 module /boot/L4Linux/fiasco -nokdb -serial_esc module /boot/L4Linux/sigma0 module /boot/L4Linux/roottask task modname "bmodfs" attached 7 modules module /boot/L4Linux/events module /boot/L4Linux/names --events module /boot/L4Linux/log --events module /boot/L4Linux/dde26_test module /boot/L4Linux/dm_phys --isa=0x00800000 -v --events module /boot/L4Linux/simple_ts -t 300 --events module /boot/L4Linux/rtc --events module /boot/L4Linux/l4io --noirq --events module module /boot/L4Linux/con module /boot/L4Linux/run module /boot/L4Linux/loader --fprov=BMODFS run linux26.cfg module /boot/L4Linux/bmodfs module /boot/L4Linux/vmlinuz module /boot/L4Linux/drops.rd module /boot/L4Linux/linux26.cfg module /boot/L4Linux/libloader.s.so module /boot/L4Linux/libld-l4.s.so vbeset 0x117
The next one is what I got from the web.

Compare the two, first I find my own has a events module more and some options about events, then I add these to the one I got from the web, but it runs ok without any problem. Then I changed the last lines' sequence and my own menu.lst works. Maybe that's the problem, but I'm not very sure.
I don't know if this is your problem but your menu.lst says that the bmodfs programs gets 7 modules attached but there are only 5 left! So change the "attached 7 modules" to "attached 5 modules" and it should look better. Otherwise your menu.lst doesn't look too bad. You should also remove the dde26_test program.
Another thing puzzled me was that when I entered in the l4con and in the command line state, I wanted to quit from the l4con and input Q, then the messge is "input 'y' to quit", I input 'y', but it's not responding, when I input 'z', it says OK, what does this mean??
That's because on a german keyboard y and z are swapped compared to an english one. We should probably make the english keymap the default. So don't worry.
