I did an upgrade (used mdk club bittorrent DL of the 3-disk powerpack CDs), and everything appeared to work properly until the point where lilo gets configured. At that point lilo had a problem. So I did a reboot (since I couldn't get out of the install) using rescue. I was completely suprised when I saw that no kernel was installed to my /boot partition. In fact none of the kernel rpms had been installed!
So I manually installed the kernel, kernel docs and kernel source, along with the NVIDIA rpms. However when I did rpm -ivh on the kernel, at the end of the install, there was an error stating that lilo configuration could not be done, and to check the lilo.conf file for errors. I could find nothing wrong with the lilo.conf file and attempted to simply configure with lilo -v. I am now getting this message when I run lilo -v: "Reading boot sector from /dev/sdd5 PART_NOWRITE: READ:: Input-output error Does anyone know what is causing this? I had no problems with 9.1 before attempting the upgrade. Thanks George
