...Just upgraded a 9.1 machine. All went smoothly until "install bootloader" time.
I use grub (why would anyone want lilo???). The script grabed a lot of old kernels from the /etc/lilo.conf file (a file I never noticed had all the old cruft in it) and tried to install them. Of course, this fails miserably. Fixed by symlinking to make lilo happy. This truly sucks, there is just so much vmlinuz-x.y-nzzzmdk you can type before going nuts :-) This seems to me to be a bit of a problem - /boot/grub/menu.lst and /etc/lilo.conf *can* be horribly out-of-sync. Seems to me a reasonable solution is to just install a new lilo.conf which lacks all the users old stuff (this can't fail); or fall back to this if lilo barfs trying to incorporate the old stuff. Anyone have an opinion? /Kevin -- Kevin J.
