Product: lilo
Component: lilo
Summary: Bootloader does not appear after installation of
Mandrake 9,.2 RC1
Product: lilo
Version: 22.5.7.2-2mdk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: critical
Priority: P2
Component: lilo
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I have a Promise SATA TX4 controller on my A7V (KT133) motherboard and attempted
to install Mandrake 9.2 RC 1 on it. The installation went fine (aside from
freezing on package choosing and installation). When finished, it rebooted and
got past the POST and the bootloader did not appear, just a cursor.
I used the First disc in rescue mode. I tried to rebuild the bootloader but it
failed and exited abnormally. I mounted the drives with the rescue disc and my
installation and filesystems appeared to be intact.
I installed Windows 2000 to make sure there wasn't a problem with the BIOS and
controller configurations. Windows 2000 does boot just fine on the new controller.
