LILO problems, no boot, can I use Knoppix rescue to fix?
Repost with modifications, first few tries did make
it to the debian user list. Maybe an overzealous
spam filter again:
I did an aptitude and did an update,
and a few "g" keystrokes to download and install.
Aptitude said something like:
Warning, it was deleting modules for old
version of kernel.
Now the system won't reboot.
THe screen says:
LILO 22.5.6.1 Loading Linux ....................................
...........
This is from a Knoppix CD hard disk install.
Any way, I can reboot using the Knoppix CD
as a rescue disk
and then edit /mnt/hda1/etc/lilo.conf .
But when I run lilo, it
says:
# sudo su
# lilo -C /mnt/hda1/etc/lilo.conf
Fatal. Sorry, don't know how to handle device 0xf000
How can I use Knoppix to fix LILO boot?
