I've seen this/like posts before so checking the archives would be a good bet. From what I recall the simplest way to fix this is to use deselect to uninstall/reinstall lilo. I haven't done this b4 so I can't say exactly though you may have to rm /etc/lilo.conf or mv to something like lilo.old or else dpkg will complain.
My experience was getting a similar error from lilo on my workstation win2k/woody. I had lilo running fine; then; upgraded via apt-get upgrade and got a like error. I grabbed a 98 boot disk and fdisk /mbr to get back to the win2k partition. Maybe one of these two statements will help. justin -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Martin Edward John Waller Sent: Monday, March 25, 2002 6:26 AM To: debian-user@lists.debian.org Subject: L 80 80 80 80, etc. on boot Hello, I've done a potato install but can't boot from the hard disk (have the floppy boot working OK tho').
