This sounds as if you need to reboot with a floppy, then run lilo as root. The typical cause of this problem is rebooting a machine after changing the kernel image but before re-running lilo. It also happens regularly to one of our student lab machines, which has a dodgy hard drive. Daniel> How come I can't execute the file even though I am in the same Daniel> directory? Do you have "." in your PATH environment variable? If not then the current directory will not be searched when looking for executables. The solution is to either: * add "." to your PATH; or * include the "." whenever you run the program, eg "./slogin" or whatever. -- Gilbert Laycock email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Maths and Computer Science, http://www.mcs.le.ac.uk/~glaycock Leicester University phone: (+44) 116 252 3902
