Hm, on my other Debian box I got 2 SCSI drives and no IDE.  Linux
is installed on the second drive (sdb) and everything works as
expected.  Lilo issues a warning that it's not installed on the
first (logical) drive, but that's intended and okay.

I guess, you're right that this is a bug in Lilo, but apparently
it only happens when IDE and SCSI are mixed.  Any comments anyone?

Bye,
 Andy.
