Ok, it looks like lilo_22dev0-1 failed for a number of people but worked
for some others...

IF you've tried lilo_22dev0-1, can you please email me (not the whole
list) with the following informations:

1/ Did it work? (give error message if it failed)

2/ Content of your lilo.conf

3/ what's your disk setup (type, number, capacity, partitionning)

4/ kernel # you are using.


NB: lilo-21 has been reinstalled in the Debian archive, but people brave
enough to test lilo-22 can find it here:
