Ahem, ..I'm an English teacher, not a computer person, so I probably blunder about more than you would. This is straight lilo. But, I check /etc/lilo.conf, and it looked as it always did back when I wrote myself save for a few lines. Here is what happened: My computer has two hard drives, win95 on one; linux on the other. When I was setting up partitions during installation of 6.0, disk druid recognized my win95 drive as two dos partitions. I left them alone and proceeded. When the set-up program configured lilo for me, it added dos with directions on how to get to the dos partitions. In addition to the information you would expect from lilo, it adds these 4 lines: map-drive=0x80 to = 0x81 map-drive=0x81 to = 0x80 I don't know what the numbers are. Do they refer to some kind of address? Or sectors? Anyway, it works great!! steve winston _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
