I have one of those bright days and for the life of me can't think of how to proceed. 1) I made the following partitioning. /dev/hda5 50M (for /) /dev/hda6 100M (for SWAP) /dev/hda7 250M (for /var) /dev/hda8 550M (for /usr) /dev/hda9 550M (for /usr/local) /dev/hda10 1500M (for /h

LILO won't react to any action of Shift, Ctrl or Alt after the boot beep now, so my Linux system on /dev/hda3 can not be booted. What do I do to re-install LILO? (Sorry to say I can't find my Linu
