After having a sit/think for a few minutes, I found that in my /etc/lilo.conf: prompt timeout="50" default=linux boot="/dev/hda" map=/boot/map install=/boot/boot.b message=/boot/message lba32 vga="1" image="/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-3" label="linux" initrd="/boot/initrd-2.4.18-3.img" read-only root="/dev/hda3" append="hdd=ide-scsi idebus=66 ide0=ata66 ide1=ata66" ...was supposed to have: root="/dev/hda2" Edited, reran lilo, booted NORMALLY!!! (Thank the Pengie God!) Hated to think that my beloved and trusty RH 7.3+ was a goner... Thanks for the help mate - made me look a bit deeper into the abyss... -- Stephen Kuhn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Kuhn Media Australia -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
