- I compiled LILO BETA.7 under Linux 0.98.6 w/ GCC 2.2.2d7 and it worked just
- fine booting Linux 0.99 (which I also compiled under the same conditions).

- BTW: I *really* like the "make config" routine... it's a *lot* nicer than
- trying to find my way through editing two dozen files going by
- directions from half a dozen README's.
