Faulty! Make the following changes and re-run LILO. That should fix you up! > > boot=/dev/hda1 Boot partition: Do you really want the Win95 boot sector over-written? I recommend either use the MBR (master boot record) or the Linux boot sector as follows: boot=/dev/hda ## MBR - head off Win95 and jump directly to LILO OR boot=/dev/hda2 ## Use Linux to boot Linux. Your choice, if you elect to use the MBR, make Win95 the active partition. If you elect to use Linux, make Linux the active partition. > install=/kernel/boot/boot.b > map=/kernel/boot/map > delay=50 > timeout=70 > compact > prompt > default=Win95 > image=/kernel/boot/vmlinuz > root=/dev/hdb1 > label=Linux > vga=normal This next section need re-working... > other=Win95 > label=Win95 > loader=/kernel/boot/chain.b Change the above to read: other=/dev/hda1 table=/dev/hda label=Win95 -- -= Sent by Debian 1.3 Linux =- Thomas Kocourek KD4CIK @[EMAIL PROTECTED]@westgac3.dragon.com Remove @_@ for correct Email address --... ...-- ... -.. . -.- -.. ....- -.-. .. -.- -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
