Re: [newbie] bug with mandrake 7.0 install -- lilo.conf
I did not have this bug when installing but I did have a display bug what you might want to do is make a text mode image of the install process or another kind judgeing on what you want read d:\install.htm for steps on how to do this. this will only work in mdk 7.0 which is the only version of mandrake besides 6.1 I can help with. __ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com

Want to post your /etc/lilo.conf file in here? Steve Flynn IBM MVS Operations Analyst "matt shobe" [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 20/02/2000 22:42:13 Please respond to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc:(bcc: Steve Flynn/UK/Contr/IBM) Subject: [newbie] bug with mandrake 7.0 install -- lilo.conf when installing using the new ISO image, everything worked perfectly until the LILO bootloader config an install step. the dang thing wouldn't install itself onto my mbr and the installer reported a "syntax error" on line 6 of lilo.conf. I wanted it to set up windoze as my default boot partition, so maybe it was taking that personally. i ended up canceling out of this step of the installer, which otherwise finished successfully. Now, I just have to use a boot floppy to get into linux on my system. any ideas how to avoid this syntax error in lilo.conf, or what might be causing it? i'd like to use lilo on my MBR for easiest dual booting and whatnot.

7.0 has a couple of bugs...they were fixed...in 7.02 iso download and just do an upgrade instead of a install and it should be fixed... matt shobe wrote: when installing using the new ISO image, everything worked perfectly until the LILO bootloader config an install step. the dang thing wouldn't install itself onto my mbr and the installer reported a "syntax error" on line 6 of lilo.conf.
