I have a disk from a RH6.2 system that lost the MBR. The disk has an odd dev label on is originating system like /dev/xyz. Not in the range of /dev/hd[a-z]. I am unable to work with this drive on the originating system so I currently have it attached to one of my PC's as /dev/hdb. I can chroot to it after boot and I see the lilo.conf that I need.
The question is, how do I force lilo to use the lilo.conf file with the device name /dev/xyz to imprint the MBR so that the drive will boot when I put it back in the originating server?
man lilo.
Use the -C option to specify the config file
and the -r option to specify the root of the
drive you want to boot from.
e.g.
mount /dev/xyz /mnt
lilo -C /mnt/etc/lilo.conf -r /mnt
