Boot problems with 1.31
OK, I know I have a strange configuration but I like it.
Here is my configuration:
HP Pavilion 7126 computer
32 meg ram
2 IDE hard drives with a IDE CD-ROM
hda = 1.65 GIG IDE
hdb = 500 Meg IDE
hdc = CD-ROM
1 SCSI hard drive and 1 4 MM tape drive driven by an Adaptec 1520 card
sda = 1 GIG SCSI ID 0
Tape drive SCSI ID 6
External modem
internal sound system and vidio
Now for the problem. I messed up my Debian install that I had on 2
partitions on the 2 IDE hard drives. I also have OS/2 and DOS running
on the IDE hard drives. Since I have blowen away my Debian and I was in
the middle of installing it anyway, I figured that I would put the new
install on the SCSI hard drive. My old install I had configured to go
to the MBR on hda. It worked fine. So I tried to do that with this
one. Lilo tells me there is a problem with hdc (my CD-ROM) and run
MAKEDEV-IDE, but it does say that it is adding my boot labels. When I
rebooted it, all I get on the screen is Li.
So, I got my OS/2 boot manager back and I configured it for the SCSI and
it will not show on the menu.
Can anyone give me some help on this? I need to get one of the boot
managers working. I am thinking about reinstalling again because of the
strange error I got but I do not know if that is a good thing to do at
this time or not.
Thanks for the help.
