You can copy the lilo.conf file on the floppy to /etc/lilo.conf. This should
work. I haven't used bootdisks in awhile. If this doesn't work post here.

Subject: [expert] Lilo problems
When i installed Mandrake 7.2 i didnt install lilo, i created a boot disk.
Well i decided to install lilo and everything works fine besides my computer
thinking that theres only 64mb of RAM and my ide cd-rw shows up as an ide
device, the bootdisk makes it a scsi device, which is what i want. So
everything works completely fine with the boot disk, but lilo isnt working
properly. I am thinking that during the install these special options (RAM
amount, and ide to scsi for cdrw's) are configured for the boot device that
you pick, so since i didnt pick lilo and slected boot disk they were
configured for my boot disk. How can i get these same settings to work with
lilo.
Thanks.
Ira
