Hi MIKE,
Maybe there is another way to boot Linux without Lilo and without a
floppy. It is LOADLINE. It is a system of booting Linux from Dos, in
your Dos partition. You need Loadline and a copy of your kernel
(vmlinuz) on your Dos partition. So you have an alternative to Lilo
without needing floppies.
