OK - then try this. In super user mode in a console, locate /etc/lilo.conf, and rename it to lilo.conf.old. If this does not work, try to copy it and paste - it should give you chance to rename the new copy. If you have to do it that way you will need to delete the original one. Then, open the lilo.conf.old, edit as required, and save as lilo.conf. That should get round the saving problem. If all that has worked, as root in a console run /sbin/lilo which should 'activate' the new lilo configuration for the next reboot. HTH Anne
