ide zip drive?
I finally got the 'Li' i installed a drive onto the primary ide and
reinstalled lilo, you get the warning 'hde is not the first harddrive'
(note just crawled out of bed so thats posibly not exact) I had to remove
the drive, boot from floppy and reinstall lilo, reinstall the drive, and
she boots. Now if only i could remeber the lilo option to tell it hde is
the bios boot drive we'd both be all set
