------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-02-24 21:42 ------- Additional Details on install & layout: 1 hard drive 3 primary 1 extended partitions hda1=winxp sp1+patches formated as NTFS hda2=/boot formated as EXT3 hda3=/ formated as XFS hda5=SWAP hda6=Win32 "D" drive formated as NTFS RC1 installation details: install RC1 using existing partitions. minimal install // internet workstation + gnome. No additional packages. install boot loader to hda2 (/boot) leaving all other settings as default finish install, reboot. Booting into linux only works the first time after a reboot. Boot into linux. select reboot from gdm login screen. (didnt even bother to log in) "LILO - Descriptor checksum error" error message. This is coming from the MBR which was supposed to have been left alone? I'll do whatever testing is asked of me to help resolve this issue. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: NEW creation_date: description: installed lilo to /dev/hda2 instead of /dev/hda. First boot after installation appears to work and system boots into linux properly. Second boot after installation - "LILO descriptor checksum error". Resolving this requires "FDISK /MBR" from a Win9x boot floppy to restore proper booting. Target system being installed to: Linux Portege 7200CT from pcmcia boot disk. Minimal installation: Gnome+internet workstation
