lilo

[rainer@rainer.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de (Rainer Dorsch)]

I wanted to install Win95 on the slave disk on my IDE system
(/dev/hdb). To make sure, that Linux (on /dev/hda) is not damaged, I did the
following

1. Remove hda
2. Configure hdb as master
3. Install Win95
4. Insert hda again
5. Configured win95 disk as hdb
6. Boot the (linux) system
7. Wrote a lilo.conf file:

	boot=/dev/hda1
	root=/dev/hda1
	compact
	install=/boot/boot.b
	map=/boot/map
	vga=normal
	delay=20
	image=/vmlinuz-2.0.30
	  label=Linux-2.0.30
	  read-only
	image=/vmlinuz
	  label=Linux
	  read-only
	other=/dev/hdb1
	  label = Win95  
	  loader=/boot/any_d.b
	  table=/dev/hdb
	  alias=1

8. run lilo

Unfortunately at the last step, the problems started: lilo -v -v -v -v
-v roduced the following output:

LILO version 19, Copyright 1992-1996 Werner Almesberger

[...]

Added Linux
    <dev=0x80,hd=5,cyl=21,sct=42>
    "ro root=301"
fd 5: offset 5120 -> dev 128, head 5, track 21, sector 43
fd 5: offset 5632 -> dev 128, head 5, track 21, sector 44
Boot other: /dev/hdb1, on /dev/hdb, loader /boot/any_d.b
Device 0x0341: BIOS drive 0x81, 16 heads, 1046 cylinders,
               63 sectors. Partition offset: 62 sectors.
Device 0x0340: BIOS drive 0x81, 16 heads, 1046 cylinders,
               63 sectors. Partition offset: 0 sectors.
Device 0x0340: Invalid partition table, 1st entry
  3D address:     1/1/0 (63)
  Linear address: 63/0/0 (62)
Removed temporary file /boot/map~



Note: I could boot a second (outdated) Slackware Linux system from hdb
before, so it should not be a hardware problem.

System information:
Debian 1.3.1


Does anybody have an idea what could be wrong? Or can anybody explain me, what the message means?

Thank you.
