Re: 3FA: ???



Hello ,
           While installing Debian , I  come across the same situation.
But I get :4Fa  .I guess it is due to the installation script when it
tries to make Linux bootable from harddisk . I corrected it
through lilo.conf and then I run lilo  .
   By doing so I get what I  want . I set the delay to 200 .so boot map(?)
will look for left space . but if i press left space during the booting
(continuously) , I get the 4FA: and then by pressing Enter I get LILO
waiting as it should do . I do not get the same problem when  I do not ask
for linux to be made bootable from the harddisk
during installation and then do it manually later . So i guess it is due
to installation script . However I have not checked the source code
and hence I am not  sure  about it .
