That installs lilo! yay! Of course now I have a new problem. When I reboot I get:
LI
So I changed lilo.conf from: disk=/dev/hde bios=0x80 boot=/dev/hda root=/dev/hde1
to: #disk=/dev/hde #bios=0x80 boot=/dev/hda root=/dev/hde1
and now I get:
LILO 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01
until I reboot it.
Any ideas what could be causing either of those problems?
thx, james
You moved the drive from /dev/hda to /dev/hde , meaning that the physical location of the disk on your IDE chain has changed, right?
So, um, why boot=/dev/hda rather than boot=/dev/hde?
Because I thought that boot= indicates where you want the boot loader to be installed? Shouldn't I install the boot loader on my first drive? if i don't have it there then my system just hangs and does nothing at all after it displays cpu, memory etc (standard bios screen). My drive at hda was completely blank when i put it there so it had no mbr. should i run lilo twice, once for hda and then once for hde?
ttyl, james
