Thanks for the idea, but I don't want a real-time snapshot. Anyways, can lilo be used to setup a boot loader on /dev/hdb so that if you physically move it to /dev/hda and boot it will boot successfully? Again, it seems like the bios= option is not relevant, because it really will be /dev/hda. What is the most appropriate mailing list for lilo discussion? Can grub do what I want? Thanks, Jeremy C.
