John Miller said that there would be a line: "default=linux"  This line is
not there.  Below is what my "lilo.conf" file states:
What line would I edit?

boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.9-19mdk
     label=linux
     root=/dev/hda5
     read-only
other=/dev/hda1
     label=dos
     table=/dev/hda

Also, Seung-woo Nam ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) told me to run "sbin/lilo" after I
edit the "lilo.conf" file.  What does running the "sbin/lilo" file do?  Many
thanks to Seung-woo, and John.
