Hello, I'm having trouble installing LILO inder Debian 1.3.1 (installing from floppies). My disks: /dev/hda DOS/Win3.1 boot /dev/hdb1 DOS FAT16 /dev/hdb2 Linux Swap /dev/hdb3 Linux Root /dev/hdb4 Minix
My /etc/lilo.conf file: boot=/dev/hda compact vga=normal install=/boot/boot.b map=/boot/map ramdisk=0 prompt timeout=200 message=/boot/startup.message default=3 ## LINUX image=/vmlinuz root=/dev/hdb3 read-only label=3 ## DOS/Windows other=/dev/hda1 table=/dev/hda label=1 ## MINIX other=/dev/hdb4 label=2 When I run LILO, the HD light comes on for a second, I get a message that 1 and 2 are added... then I reboot and instead of LILO coming up, the computer just boots DOS. Shouldn't the line boot=/dev/hda cause LILO to write itself to the MBR of the first HD? Any ideas? I'm sure the HD is OK - it worked last week under a different Linux but I want to run Debian. I made sure I turned off all the anti-virus stuff under DOS, too, just in case before booting Debian from floppy and running LILO. Thanks...
