I haven't tried that yet. First thing would be to know if the bootloader is to blame for not having a bootable system. As of now, it would be some timming issues related to initramfs-tools' scripts (wild guess). Then, I'd need to know if LILO supports the configuration described before, i.e., md0 contains /boot and md1 contains LVs, one of them being /dev/mapper/root_vg-root_lv. After that, I'd need to test the proper way to install/uninstall software from an unbootable machine. I guess d-i allows installing LILO on top of grub. The purpose is either reinstalling grub-pc, downgrading to grub-legacy, or installing LILO. Other option would be using rescueCD, chroot into my system and install from there. Suggestions are welcome. But first I'll need to refresh my LILO skills. It's been a while :) -- Huella de clave primaria: 0FDA C36F F110 54F4 D42B D0EB 617D 396C 448B 31EB
