- Hi,
-
- I need help with lilo 0.7
-
- The previous version of lilo worked great until I upgraded
- the linux kernel. With the new kernels we need lilo 0.7.
- So far so good.
-
- So I downloaded, compiled and installed it.
-
- It works great on my computer at home (mfm hard disk).
- But in the university (at bus/ide hard disk) it prints
- only "LI" instead of "LILO" and the computer hangs.
-
- I used exactly the same source both times.
- Both computers were installed starting with hlu's
- boot and base disks, then I added GCC from the SLS disks.
- I erased the etc/lilo directory and recreated it by
- copying lilo, boot.b and chain.b there from /usr/src/lilo.
- On one computer it works, on the other not.
-
- Any ideas?
