Re: boot sector and it's backup
OK, I figured it out; it was a line I added to /etc/fstab to load /dev/hda1
as VFAT (windows ME) but apperently I had done it the wrong way, whick
brings up the quesion how do I add a line to /etc/fstab so /dev/hda1 is
mounted as VFAT on boot?

I don't know what I did for this to result but when I turned on the computer
tried to boot into debian (kernel 2.4.20) it loaded a bit then it said:
There are differences between boot sector and it's backup.
Differences: (offset: original/backup)
71:57/4c, 72:49/4f, 73:4e/43, 74:4d/41, 75:45/4c, 76:31/20, 77:35/44,
78:47/49, 79:42/53, 80:20/4b
Not automatically fixing this.
Then while I wrote this down, to my surprise it started loading again! When
it loaded I ran lilo thinking this might fix my problem, but it didn't.
Can anyone help me fix this?
Thank you for your replies,
Zim
