It was Oct 5, 2000, 19:31, when Joan Tur keyboarded: >Now i've got /boot in /dev/sda6 and / in /dev/sda7. I've bought a new >HD and i will use the full /dev/sda for Linux, but i don't know how to >change /boot to /dev/sda5 (first extended partition) and / to /dev/sda6 >(second one). Moves will be made with Partitionmagic 5 but what about >lilo? 8-? Make sure your bootdisk (floppy) works. Then boot from it after the moves, and at the lILO prompt type linux root=/dev/sda6 (sda?? SCSI??) After booting update your FSTAB and /etc/LILO.CONF, re-run lilo, and you should be okay. But ask a few more people, I am not 100% certain that I said this right.
