I was attempting to install etch on /dev/hda4. The installation went smoothly until it was time to install the boot loader. I skipped the grub step, because this sistem has always been booted using lilo, and I see no reason to shange now. My emergency boot floppy contains am MBR written by lilo. However, lilo did not work. It seemed to start OK, and advanced until the screen said: Installing LILO 75% Running LILO for /dev/hda And then nothing happened any more, although I could still switch consoles with Ctl-alt-F2. Eventually I rebooted to the sarge I had stashed away in /dev/hda3, using my emergency boot floppy, and reconfigured and ran its lilo so as to reestablish a working MBR. But although lilo ren, even with an added stanza for the new etch system, only the old sarge system would boot. I was surprised during network recognition that it found me two ethernet interfaces: the sarge system only recognises one. -- hendrik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
