You do not need rescue disk made during installation for this. If you
have boot floppy for installation or

Hi,
I just updated my debian woody (testing) installation with dselect and
when it tries to install the new lilo-version, I get the following
errors:
Configuring packages ... /var/lib/debconf//config.1295:
/usr/sbin/lilo_find_mbr: No such file or directory

Actually, it's not as bad it seems. :-)
I just checked and it is on the secondary controller. What now?
Good. Moving the drive should be fairly straightforward. Excuse me if it
is a bit longish. Easier to

well actually two questions. First, is it easy to pass parameters to the

Yes, just press c when grub's menu shows (spending time for the

Sorry, guess I

duh.. I forgot to attach the lilo.conf file. I'll try again. When I try to
boot from the hard drive, all that happens is I get a screenfull of zeros.
here's how my hd is partitioned:
hdc1=windows
hdc3=/
hdc5=/home
hdc6=/usr
hdc4=swap
thanks for replying.

Assuming you didn't make a typo and meant hdc not hda, what is on hda (master
drive, primary controller)? My brother looking over my shoulder
Hi Bob,
When I change hdc to hda and run /sbin/lilo I get the following message:
lymond:/# /sbin/lilo
Fatal: open /dev/hda1: Device not configured
I am not sure now why these are listed as hdc, this install comes from
libranet 1.8.2 (althought I don't know why that would make any difference).

Hi Dale... I forgot to ask how many drives are in your machine?
Partition check:
hdc: hdc1 hdc2 hdc5 hdc6 hdc3 hdc4
This it the only drive the kernel finds when booting? Seems like it. The
kernel should report all

DOS values primary partitions higher than everything else, so that
would be:
C: hda1

F: hdb2
eg when you have 3 partitions per drive:
C: hda1
