I'm happily using lilo to boot my server. From a floppy, yet. The nice thing about a floppy disk drive is that it has as many boot records as you have floppy disks. If the boot record is damaged, you just pull one of your five backups off the shelf and use *that* to boot. And if you have more than one OS (I do -- different versions of Linux -- if the lilo stuff on disk gets damaged, I boot the other os (which has its own lilo stuff) using *its* ilo floppy. -- hendrik _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list [email protected] https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
