This conveniently also put the config in /boot, so you never have to look far when you need to know if some config setting is enabled. There's a whole list of such features in the kernel-package docs. > MFK> $EDITOR /etc/lilo.conf # make the changes here > MFK> lilo "lilo -v -v" is what I use, so I get to see any errors more clearly. It is unpleasant to notice these only after reboot. > MFK> reboot ISTR that the proper command is "shutdown -r now", but on checking the manpage, it appear that this is just what "reboot" does when the system is not in runlevel 0 or 6. Should save me some typing in the future. Cheers, Joost
