However, when I tried to carry out the upgrade, I ran into another problem. I have no lilo.conf file, probably because I am loading from a floppy. Using separate partitions for windows and linux,I have had nothing but trouble with lilo and, therefore, I load linux witha floppy. Is there a way to upgrade the kernel therough lilo while preventing lilo from becoming my boot loader? ________________________
