Are you trying to boot from the second IDE bus? My Linux disk is on
the second IDE bus in my computer, and my BIOS is too crappy to boot
from it. It would always hang with "LI". I had to use loadlin.exe
instead. If you want more info about loadlin, jusk ask.

column of the output of `fdisk -l`.
Try (as root)
# mount -t ext2 /de
I am new debian user (and a newbie)- My debian distro is not booting
properly with LILO- when I turn on the computer it gets to LI and nothing
else- have to then turn off the computer and boot from the CDRROM. I can't
find the LILO file to alter it! Which directory is it in?
