"Bombs out"? Can you show us the full error message? It can probably be fixed. (A known-broken version of lilo somehow made it into testing recently, and it will overwrite your existing /etc/lilo.conf. It might be a good idea to manually download the lilo package from unstable and install that by hand with 'dpkg -i'.) -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
