The default debian lilo configuration does not prompt. Add "prompt" and possbily timeout to your /etc/lilo.conf and rerun lilo. See the lilo.conf man page for details. Acording to the lilo man page, it should be posibly to get a prompt by hitting shift at the proper moment. I've never done this. -- Blars Blarson [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.blars.org/blars.html "Text is a way we cheat time." -- Patrick Nielsen Hayden
