make and test a boot floppy first ( just to be safe/paranoid )
dd, syslinux, mkbootflop, etc..
than do the lilo ... and cross your fingers you dont get
L, Li, lil-, 99 when you reboot
- if you do .. just fix lilo.conf again
c ya
alvin
assuming you have lilo already installed, check the following
# if your main MBR is /dev/hda
boot = /dev/hda
..
# check if you need lba32 or linear
lba32
..
# make sure you're pointing to / of your system
image = /boot/vmlinuz-xxx
root = /dev/hda1 ( / of your linux )
