woody->sarge i386 (lilo?) upgrade woes
Dear, dear debian users,
What I did.
Upgrade from Woody to Sarge on x86.
Ignored "update your lilo" message.
Network disconnected right as upgrade was nearing completion.
I rebooted.
Symptoms
Boot no longer has lilo boot menu
Boot prints outs "Verifying DMI Pool Data ......." then a line that
begins "LI" and hangs.
Booting from CD (3.0r1 Binary1) results in "Verifying DMI Pool Data ...."
"Boot from ATAPI CD-ROM: Failure ...." and then the "LI" line.
Assets:
A friend's windows machine,
a CD Burner, and
the debian-user list.
Thanks in advance for helping restore my mail and webserver,
Josh
