You have to mount your / and /boot (if you have one), and run lilo with the -r parameter. For example, assuming your / was /dev/hda5 and /boot is /dev/hda1: # mkdir /mnt2 (RedHat bootdisks put important stuff in /mnt) # mount /dev/hda5 /mnt2 # mount /dev/hda1 /mnt2/boot # /mnt2/sbin/lilo -r /mnt Added Linux * Added Doze # umount /mnt2/boot # umount /mnt2 ... and the reboot. Apologies in advance if you already knew all this (; -Yaron -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: tclug-list-unsubscribe at mn-linux.org For additional commands, e-mail: tclug-list-help at mn-linux.org
