Yes, I tried the CD solution but it wouldn't work for me.
Whatever I chose to update, I would always get the same message:
"No new kernel packages were installed. Boot Loader configuration will =
be changed"
This is a pain, I don't know why it can't just install the frickin boot =
loader.
Anyway, I found a program called grubconf which is a graphical GRUB =
config editor, but unsurprisingly I have more problems compiling. This =
time it wants some file called libgnomeui-2.0.pc wihch doesn't exist on =
my computer.
Grr. I'm probably just gonna end up looking at the GRUB documentation =
and installing it maually.
So far linux has created more problems than it's solved!

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=3D/dev/hda_whatever_you_have TO boot=3D/dev/hda
Then, run lilo from the command line to install the actual lilo.
Regards,
James.
