1FA: Problem
I ran into the 1FA Boot problem after loading ver 1.3 Base System. The
system would boot fine from floppy, but not from harddisk (it just sat at
1FA: until a floppy was put in and the "F" key was pressed). After reading
a couple of replies to a similar problem I tried changing the
/etc/lilo.conf to reflect boot=/dev/hda (it had been hda1) this alone
didn't work. However, another reply suggested running liloconfig. I did
and it asked if I wanted to build a boot block. I answered yes, and this
fixed the problem. I don't know why this wasn't built when I answered yes
to have it boot from the harddrive (during installation).
