LILO failure
Hi, I'm having trouble getting lilo to dualboot with Redmondware. When lilo comes up it just says LILO without the colon and I can't type anything, then it loads Linux after the timeout. My lilo.conf looks like this, did I miss anything? lba32 boot=/dev/hda install=/boot/boot.b map=/boot/map delay=60 vga=normal default=linux image=/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda5 label=linux read-only other=/dev/hda1 label=windows table=/dev/hda Henrik Enberg -- Television -- teacher, mother, secret lover! - Homer J.

If there are any errors spit out when you run /sbin/lilo post them to the list. hth, kent -- I'd really love ta wana help ya Flanders but... Homer Simpson

If you want to boot your other you need to hit the shift and then type in windows. hth Dean [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Please add prompt. kirneh74 boot=/dev/hda kirneh74 install=/boot/boot.b kirneh74 map=/boot/map kirneh74 delay=60 kirneh74 vga=normal kirneh74 default=linux kirneh74 kirneh74 image=/vmlinuz kirneh74 root=/dev/hda5 kirneh74 label=linux kirneh74 read-only kirneh74 kirneh74 other=/dev/hda1 kirneh74 label=windows kirneh74 table=/dev/hda Regards, --Wen [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
