I had the same problem. Edit /etc/lilo.conf and comment out the "compact" line. BTW this is a bug. How do I report a bug? Lilo.conf should have compact off by default. The documentation clearly states that compact does not work on all computers. > --- [start] --- > > compact change this to # compact > > --- [end] --- > > > So what do I have to do now?

My 386 only had 4MB ram + 8 MB swap and I ran into problems when running dselect. My swap file was full as was my ram and ld.so could not load some libc stuff. It now has 8MB ram and I haven't had any problems to date. -- Stephen Gregory -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
