I am in teh process of rebuilding my Debian machine after I screwed up the upgrade to 2.0. It had run for over 3 years with no problems before that :-(
Needles to say, I don't remeber everything about hos I initialy set it up. I had LILO booting the first IDE disk as Debian, by default. i have this working again now. However I have a 2nd disk that contains a DOS filesystem. I had LILO set up to allow me to select it as aa alternate boot. I have looked at the LILO docs, and notheing really strikes me there. here is the old lilo.conf file: boot=/dev/hda1 root=/dev/hda1 compact install=/boot/boot.b map=/boot/map vga=normal delay=20 image=/vmlinuz label=Linux read-only image=/vmlinuz.safe label=Linux.safe read-only other=/dev/hdb1 table=/dev/hdb label=msdos loader=/boot/any_d.b How do I get the proper loader=/boot/any_d.b file back? restoreing the one from my backup does not make lilo happy :-( Thanks for answering my dumb question. -- Stan Brown [EMAIL PROTECTED] 770-996-6955 Factory Automation Systems Atlanta Ga. -- Windows 98: n. minor patch release for 32-bit extensions and a graphical shell for a 16-bit patch to an 8-bit operating system originally coded for a 4-bit microprocessor, written by a 2-bit company that can't stand for 1 bit of competition. - (c) 1998 Stan Brown.
