Hello Lorne.
I'm very glad for all info I can get.
Ok. so far so good. Im gonna change vga=788 to
vga=normal due to a framebuffer problem. With the
lilo.conf open in vi i hit "i" for insert and edit 788
to normal. (the text becomes blue for some reason).
Then I go out with esc. and try to save.
Then vi tells me "argument required"...
Sorry for my "bad knowhow" about linux, but I find
linux very interresting and I have to start
someplace..... :-)

Regards. Terje
