Good point. A quick grep through the config db didn't find any
references to a particular device. It seems like something like this
should do the job:
mv /etc/lilo.conf /etc/lilo.conf.new
mv /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.new
[restore]
mv /etc/lilo.conf /etc/lilo.conf.restore
mv /etc/lilo.conf.new /etc/lilo.conf
mv /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.restore
mv /etc/fstab.new /etc/fstab
This wouldn't be destructive of any changes you'd made in your
previous setup, and should still allow you to hand-edit those files
if you'd make any specific changes (for example, adding a second
drive in fstab--though the installation process would nuke everything
on that drive too).
