I don't know if this is LILO-related, mbr related, or unrelated to Linux, but I've never seen it before: Machine is Pentium 166, all SCSI, Adaptec 2940 controller. MB and BIOS are AMD. System is about 3 ~ 4 years old. I've had several versions of Linux on it, including the latest, on the second partition of the drive, but recently am experiencing boot-up problems, sometimes at turn on, but more often at warm re-boot. Sometimes at that point, a cold boot works, lately that's becoming flaky. Symptom: Boot process goes thru logging in all the SCSI hardware, then gets to the bottom of the boot screen where it puts up the BIOS s/n, and hangs there. I can, however, boot off a floppy, and access the hard drive, so the drive is up and running. (Yes, I know I can always access Linux that way, but not W95.) Any ideas, etc., appreciated.
