Hi,
I like it that by now you can set up lilo with debconf, thats a good
idea, it's now possible to set lilo up very fast. But: would it be
possible to leave lilo.conf's original "look and feel"? I mean like when
you install exim, you can config it with debconf, but the exim.conf
looks like th

Why the hell are you doing anything at ALL? You're not the maintainer, your
preinst/postinst is screwed, you trash a working configuration with
unwarranted assumptions on your own part and don't even save a backup of the
original configuration. I had SIX working kernel images defined in my

Yes I did.
I ran /sbin/lilo before reboot.
After reboot, I can use my CD-RW, but lilo.conf is
restored to original form, so after the next reboot I
can't use my CD-RW.

I hope I'm doing this right this time. I screwed it up the last time I tried

thanks for responding.
Cristoph:
It's working. But lilo.conf is still restored to
original form "non-scroll" after reboot.
Any idea what's happening?

Also don't forget that win98 writes its own stuff to the MBR during the
install process and will take out lilo.

This may be a stupid question, but, are you typing make *config in the
"/usr/src/linux" directory? It doesn't work in any other directory. If
you are then you should replace your kernel source files because somthin
aint right.
