No, what they're saying is that the entry in lilo.conf is incorrect. It needs to by vmlinuz-2.2.16-3, unless you've made a symlink from vmlinuz-2.2.16-3 to vmlinux-2.2.16-3. > On Wednesday 31 January 2001 06:38, Tomás García Ferrari opined: > > Then I add in /etc/lilo.conf this: > > > image=/boot

Try using -U instead of -i. It looks like rpm is saying it can't install because it already exists...howerver, -U is upgrade...which may very well work. Also, instead of /boot/vmlinux-2.2.16-3, see if /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.16-3 exists...if so, change the "Boot image:" line to read vmlinuz, instead.
