hi, i have problem with lilo.. :/

[root@fusk lilo-22.6.1]# ROOT=/s ./QuickInst

QuickInst configures LILO and installs it on your hard disk. It should only be
used for first-time installations, _not_ to update or modify an existing
installation of LILO. It will _not_ generate a valid installation with versions
of LILO below 22.

The installation procedure can be interrupted by pressing ^C at any time. When
at a prompt, a sub-shell can be invoked with the exclamation mark.

Continue ? [yes]

A directory /boot already exists. If you're installing a new version of
LILO now, QuickInst has to replace the old files with the new ones.

Replace old files ? [yes]


Making LILO ...

help plz..

I would be interested but the last post was well over a year ago, and soltex no offense but don't just hijack someone elses thread go start your own, or at least read the lilo documentation before posting, maybe try grub if you're having problems with lilo, both boot loaders are well documented.

hello frnd
try to recompile the srpms and bind that with YAST or anaconda. (SUSE or redhat). Im new to mandrake.
if i get some gud docs i will fwd u
regards
gokul
