I'm still having a helluva time trying to make Lilo boot potato off
/dev/hdc1 (second HD). Nothing seems to work.
I have just tried (as Howard Mann suggested) booting potato's kernel
with my slink's lilo (which is installed in /dev/hda4 and works
perfectly for booting from there). What I did was t

If fdisk /mbr doesn't work try to RTFM! :) Just kidding. Actually, LILO
stores the original MBR in /boot. Read the LILO docs in /usr/doc/lilo to
get detailed instructions on which file to "dd" and what dd flags are
needed.

the same problems you did, i.e. LILO would never start completely. Also,
something similar happened to o

I have a non-fatal albeit annoying problem. I'm running debian 1.3 and I
absolutly cannot get LILO to work properly. When the machine starts to
boot the 'LI' shows up the the machine locks (have to use the reset button
ctrl-alt-del doesn't work). The LILO is version 19.
I'm running a Cyrix 6x
