I guess these would have been in the same directory as the kernel, which will be gone by now. I removed most of the source as I only have a 100meg drive. > Eek, I think this is your problem.

I didn't have a problem with it, (well, I did after I defragged it - I freaked out when it stopped at the LILO prompt - thought I had trashed it, after hearing so many horror stories, but I fixed it after remembering to reconfigure LILO- (the same way you told the other person). The only reason I defragged it was because I had removed and installed lots of files while the drive was near full (only 100meg drive!). I was wondering what files in the /boot directory I could remove safely, like the system map for the old kernel, and what the system map actually does. What do the files in the /boot dir do? The only file touched since installing is /boot/map which (I guess) LILO had done, after I reconfigured it. BTW, liloconfig is easier to remember than the other command to reconfigure LILO.
