Maybe there is an easier way but you can stick - vga = ask into your /etc/lilo.conf Reboot and you will be asked to make a choice. It may take a few reboots (that is the part I don't like). Then once you have decided which "number" your going with you would put - vga = <number> in /etc/lilo.conf Remember to run /sbin/lilo. hth, kent -- I'd really love ta wana help ya Flanders but...
