Install lilo is a very simple process. First, install the last lilo RPM, if you don't already have one. Next, edit the /etc/lilo.conf file (the rpm file don't create it for you !!!, but the installation setup yes). The content of the "/etc/lilo.conf" file must be like this, where the example shows a system with kernel 2.4.21 and "/boot" partition is under /dev/hda6 and "/" partition is under /dev/hda7, and the system boot from the MBR: prompt timeout=20 default=2.4.21 boot=/dev/hda map=/boot/map install=/boot/boot.b message=/boot/message lba32 image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.21 label=2.4.21 initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.21.img read-only append="root=/dev/hda7" After do, run the "lilo -v" command. this may install lilo into the MBR section on the first Hard-Disk. If you want to go-back to GRUB, use "grub-install /dev/xxx", where /dev/xxx is your Hard-Drive. -- Marcos S.
