LILO



hi,
    just installed "slink". everything is ok, except that LILO is screwed. i
installed LILO in the MBR of hda1. when i reboot the computer, i can't see
the letters "LILO" because the entire screen is filled with strings of "01".
and it just keeps showing "01". so i can boot to windows or linux.

here is my harddisk setup:
/dev/hda1 - Windows 98 4Gb (default)
/dev/hdb  - CD-ROM
/dev/hdd1 - Linux "/" 1.5Gb
/dev/hdd2 - Linux "/usr" 3Gb
/dev/hdd3 - Linux "/var" 3Gb
/dev/hdd4 - Linux Swap 32Mb

i managed to boot to linux using a boot disk, and reconfigue lilo.conf.
however, when i run LILO from /sbin, here is the message :
     Warning : BIOS Drive 0x82 may not be accessible

here is my lilo.conf :

boot=/dev/hda
vga=normal
timeout=300
message=/boot/message
prompt

other=/dev/hda1
label="Windows"
table=/dev/hda

image=/vmlinuz
label="Linux"
readonly
root=/dev/hdd1


thanks
-ken
