Actually, I don't have a problem with SC, because I didn't install LILO into the MBR.
SC boots up fine and finds the Linux ext partition, and can boot to that partition.
The problem that I'm having is the LILO boot. I saw that someone else on the newbie
list out there is having the same problem, and has close to the same configuration. I
wonder if this is a bug with 7.1? The main problem is LILO it starts and prints the L
of LILO and then a continous 10 10 10 10 10 10.... ect. Please help.
Thanks,
Greg DeYoung
