I've compiled a new kernel as I've done many times in the past. This time I'm trying to use linuxconf to automatically configure lilo for me. Linuxconf doesn't provide me with a list of choices concerning which the root partition to install to and if I type in '/dev/hda1' (what I am using now) it says that that is an invalid choice. All help is appreciated. (not sure if this is expert level or not but it was ignored on newbie mailing list) ____________________________________________________________________ Get free email and a permanent address at http://www.netaddress.com/?N=1
