Dear All, I am a newbie to Debian, and I ran into problems today. I did just like it says here below, but when I reboot I do not come further than "LI" of "LILO". After googleing a bit I found that this was a "well known" problem, and that it can be solved using a boot disk. Could someone explain to me, step by step, what I shall do when I have booted with the boot-disk?
Boot from the rescue floppy. At the prompt, type: rescue root=/dev/hda1 (or wherever your root partition is). Fix and rerun lilo.
