I wanted to install Win95 on the slave disk on my IDE system (/dev/hdb). To make sure, that Linux (on /dev/hda) is not damaged, I did the following
1. Remove hda 2. Configure hdb as master 3. Install Win95 4. Insert hda again 5. Configured win95 disk as hdb 6. Boot the (linux) system 7. Wrote a lilo.conf file: boot=/dev/hda1 root=/dev/hda1 compact install=/boot/boot.b map=/boot/map vga=normal delay=20 image=/vmlinuz-2.0.30 label=Linux-2.0.30 read-only image=/vmlinuz label=Linux read-only other=/dev/hdb1 label = Win95 loader=/boot/any_d.b table=/dev/hdb alias=1 8. run lilo Unfortunately at the last step, the problems started: lilo -v -v -v -v -v roduced the following output: LILO version 19, Copyright 1992-1996 Werner Almesberger [...] Added Linux <dev=0x80,hd=5,cyl=21,sct=42> "ro root=301" fd 5: offset 5120 -> dev 128, head 5, track 21, sector 43 fd 5: offset 5632 -> dev 128, head 5, track 21, sector 44 Boot other: /dev/hdb1, on /dev/hdb, loader /boot/any_d.b Device 0x0341: BIOS drive 0x81, 16 heads, 1046 cylinders, 63 sectors.

Device 0x0340: Invalid partition table, 1st entry 3D address: 1/1/0 (63) Linear address: 63/0/0 (62) Removed temporary file /boot/map~ Note: I could boot a second (outdated) Slackware Linux system from hdb before, so it should not be a hardware problem. System information: Debian 1.3.1 Does anybody have an idea what could be wrong? Or can anybody explain me, what the message means? Thank you. -- Rainer Dorsch Abt.
