Otherwise, no problems. Hi Anne, Ahh.... this could explain why hda - the previous 9.1 install - wouldn't see hdd - where 9.0 lives. So with lilo presently running things from hdd, in order to have control from hda (new 9.1 install), it (hda) would need the /boot partition?... then copy the files from hdd's lilo?
