Hello list,

I wish to boot a CD with Linux inside on an old computer (P120 MHz), where the motherboard (contain an old Award version of BIOS) does not have "Boot from CD" option. I thought to hack it using LILO, and make it call the book-able CD, but I'm unable to do so, because LILO keep complaining that it's a read only media.


This is how I try to do it:

other=/dev/cdrom
   label="Boot from CD"

Please note that there is only *one* cd-rom on the computer

Can you help me with finding another way to do it, or at least point me for a place where can I find something on the subject (google wasn't very helpful :( )


Ido
