Yeah, it's a mess with EFI. I wrote this in November 2020:
"Redundancy for EFI System Partition: what do people do
In the past when Ive had 2 disks in a RAID1 mirror Ive been able
replicated the MBR on both such that the system is capable of booting
from either in the event of a failure using the command
dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc which then allowed both disks to be selected.
I was under the impression the e

I have three questions.

Before finally removing it, I would like to set up the disk that is currently
in /dev/hdc with a boot sector and filesystem, such that when re-install it
as /dev/hda it just boots up the root filesystem in its first partition.

if you mean your system boots funny or cannot boot, and you want to
be able to boot off hd again
and if you have the old /boot/boot.*
- first make a boot floppy or a 2nd disk for booting off of it
- you can erase

iirc, by default lilo refuses to backup the boot

I just need to be able to mount /dev/md0, then I can fix my boot sector.

fails, I can always install Woody on a

Hi,
I was installing a new kernel and accidentally pressed "return" when
asked if I wanted to have lilo rewrite the boot sector of my disk.
The install failed, and I want to figure out whether the boot sector
was ACTUALLY rewritten. I use GRUB, so I'd really rather not hav

You see, if you have LILO in your Linux root's boot sector, to change
whether to boot Linux or Win95 directly, all you have to do is change
the active partition using FDISK on either lin

Hi,
When I purchased my PC, it came with Win95 preloaded. After
installing linux on it, lilo did back up the original bootsector and
stored it in /boot, but over the past two years, and after a couple of
Linux reinstalls, I lost the original bootsector (blush). Now, I am

So I have a laptop that has been running slink since August. I
just downloaded the new lilo and tried to install a new kernel via lilo.
I get the error message :

First boot sector has a pre-21 LILO signature

That is what they make boot disks for. When you reinstalled Win95, it did an
overwrite of lilo in your MBR. Now you need to boot linux with your emergency
boot disk (you made one didn't you) and reinstall lilo.

Boot from rescue disk (either from floppy or CDROM) mount the partition
where you have the root (/) part
My disk is partitined with linux - lilo and win95
When I re-installed win95, I could not start linux again.
I would appreciate it if you could help me
