Instructions to unsubscribe from this list at the end of the message - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi John,
have you tried the CD solution I've proposed you? I guess you want to know the solution the 'linux' way. You can do it in one of two ways: (1) type this in the command line: lilo -b /dev/hda This will install 'lilo' in the bootdevice specified by the -b argument, in this case, the MBR (/dev/hda) OR (2) Edit /etc/lilo.conf (if the file is present) and edit the line: boot=/dev/hda_whatever_you_have TO boot=/dev/hda Then, run lilo from the command line to install the actual lilo. Regards, James. > Instructions to unsubscribe from this list at the end of the message > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > Hi, yet another prob :) > During the RedHat 9 installation I didn't setup lilo, and I boot from a > floppy. > However, this is too slow so know I want to setup lilo so i can boot > linux as well as windows 98 without having to mess with floppy disks. > When I tried to install the lilo rpm, I was told it was already > installed. > I do a search for files containing lilo and all I get is /sbin/lilo > but when I run it it expects me to have already created an > /etc/lilo.conf file with all the details.
