Sorry that new lilo and kernel (here 2.6.17) will have to wait for a trip to town to burn my updates CDROM. Anyway, this bug is no big deal, just a curiosity for you. Not sure if Debian team changes are involved. What I really want to tell lilo is "Thanks for your concern, but can you please just concentrate on hda! Believe me when I say the food is all in the fridge. Don't bother checking elsewhere." I.e., instead of having to explicitly list all the places it should not poke its nose, whether doing $ lilo or booting, I would like instead to just list the places where it should poke its nose. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
