If you tell me what is set to boot first > in the bios, I might have an idea; lilo.conf: ----------- [root@quinipc etc]# cat lilo.conf boot=/dev/hde map=/boot/map install=/boot/boot.b vga=794 default=Mandrake8 keytable=/boot/es-latin1.klt lba32 prompt timeout=50 message=/boot/message-graphic menu-scheme=wb:bw:wb:bw image=/boot/vmlinuz label=Mandrake8 root=/dev/sdb6 initrd=/boot/initrd.img append=" hdc=ide-scsi" vga=788 read-only other=/dev/hde1 label=WinME table=/dev/hde ... ----------- HD is plugged in the 3rd ide controller, the 1st promise one. So it's ide2 and i can access its partitions using hde as device. -ide0: disabled in bios -ide1: DVD as master -ide2: IBM 30Gb as master -ide3: empty Lilo always run fine (i get no errors). I've also renamed /dev/hda* to /dev/hda*.bak and made simbolic links to /dev/hde* and then pointed lilo.conf to hda instead of hde and lilo still runs fine... but i still get 'LI' 8-? And i cannot use sda to boot because winME won't boot then... what about making a partition on hda to have there lilo?? 8-?
