OK, we are making progress here.
Did you see my post saying I had reinstalled and put in a standard MBR to call
LILO? At the time, it id not fix anything, but I just wanted make you aware
that was how things curently stand.
Now on to the good new. I made the changes to /etc/lilo.conf you sugested, and
reran /sbin/lilo (no errors). Then I rebooted. I now ger "LI" and the system
hangs there. I have tried this both with LBA on, and off in the BIOS.
Still that's a whole letters worht (I) of prgoress in the boot process.
Next sugestion?
