Sorry if anyone got spam filter messages from me, I was playing with my webmail filters while trying to figure out my boot problem. This is copied and pasted from the archive...

When I execute a shell program and then try to run lilo using: lilo -r /target I get the following error: sh: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: version `GLIBC_PRIVATE' not found (required by /target/lib/libc/so.6). I get the same message if I use lilo (with out the -r /target bit). I guess this means my installed libraries don't match the CD's requested libraries? emma -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
