package: lilo version: any (last tested from last "testing" CD netinst image) Debian: "testing"
I have tried to use lilo for booting from different ways without any success. The symptoms are always the same. Ways I tried: 1. Installing the system manually via debootstrap, etc ... Then used aptitude to install lilo. 2. Normal netinst Then used apt-get install or aptitude to install lilo. GRUB worked fine. 3. expert mode install asking (last step) for lilo installation instead of grub. 4. Used lilo from another system creating an entry for the debian system in /etc/lilo.conf (included initrd.img). Symptom (for all previous atempts): The image of the kernel seems to be correctly loaded but ends up repeating 4 or 5 times (cannot remember exactly) the following message: request-module: runaway loop modprobe binfmt-464c -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
