Hello!
Please, someone could help me with the following problem:
I have a system with the following specifications: Intel 865G Chipset SATA Maxtor 120GB P4 2.8 Ghz
When I trying to install Mandrake 10.1 on it, it intalls it normally, but when I boot I have only "L" letter instead Lilo Boot Menu, I tried GRUB Bootloader, and get "G" letter instead GRUB Boot Menu
I would have expected to see a number just after the "L", likes L 01 01 01 01 01
Maybe lilo installed itself at the starting of the partition instead of at the starting of the disk, and you see the Lilo from the old Redhat installation, or something related. In such case you have to ajust the lilo file (/etc/lilo.conf) to be sure it install itself directly in the boot sector and check the files at the good place, and then type /usr/sbin/lilo -v
Without seeing your lilo file, it is difficult to help more. Perhaps you can find your problem by reading this document:

Also I have windows XP on this system to dual boot. After I have installed Fedora Core 3, It works normally, but with mandrake 10.1 official I have problems to boot.
Please anybody have experience with this thing?
