Hi, All, Here is my problem:
I am installing the testing version of debian. during the installation of LILO, I choose to install it in the boot sector of hda2, which is my Linux root partition (hda1 is windows 98). after that, it asks me whether I want to install a new boot manager in the MBR, I thought that the purpose of not installing LILO in MBR is to leave that untouched, so I answered no, and then marked hda2 bootable in cfdisk (toggled off the bootable flag of hda1 at the same time). then reboot, It says missing operating system. so It seems to me that the DOS MBR is not finding hda2's boot sector, I thought that it is supposed to find that and hand the controll over to LILO. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong here? could it be the problem with my DOS MBR, which can only load hda1?
