You mean I can't use the new 2.4 line? Naw, that can't be right.
Maybe I can't be trusted will all this new complicated stuff, spose?

2.4.18-5 for amd k6-2. Also tried to roll my own. Same result.
lilo on floppy:
lba32
boot = /dev/fd0
install = boot.b
map = map
compact
prompt
timeout = 50
read-only
image = vmlinuz
label = linux
initrd=/initrd.img
root = /dev/hde6
I added the initrd part since mkboot did not. I also made sure
the /vmlinuz and initrd links on / point to the correct
files in /boot
lilo on hd:
lba32
boot=/dev/hde9
root=/dev/hde9
install=/boot/boot.b
delay=20
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
image=/vmlinuz
initrd=/initrd.img
label=Linux
read-only
I thought the idea that woody might be calculating partition
labels differently so good that I tried a few. hda9 does not
work as does not hde6
The hd/partition layout is as follows:
primary master - a- not used
primary slave - b -not used
secondary master -c- 3gb with partions 5,6,7
secondary slave - d - not used
promise 66 - e - with partitions 1,5,6,7,8,9,10
All partitions are ntfs except that e9 is linux and
c6 is dos
