In a question about something else, which has since been answered, I
had written:
Laura> What is the Version of a boot sector? How would I change
Laura> it if I wanted to? What is causing it to expect version
Laura> 21.7?
I just ran into the error message that prompted that again, while
running mkbootdisk. I reran the mkbootdisk script with -x, and found
that it's a LILO message:
+ /sbin/lilo -r /tmp/mkbootdisk
Fatal: First boot sector is version 20.0. Expecting version 21.7.
mkbootdisk does in fact chug along writing to the floppy for a while
after giving me that message, but the designation Fatal doesn't lead
me to want to trust the disk.
So what should I do to make LILO happier? And meanwhile, do I have a
boot disk? And if not, how do I get one?
