Betreff: Rerunning lilo
Hi everyone,
I am new to the list and Linux. I installed GRML on my Toshiba a55.
I am blind and I was able to resize my hard drive, and install the
grml to
the hard drive with no problem. This is what I had partitioned my
hard
drive to, hda1 26G, hda2 2g fat32, hda3 1G Linux swap, and hda4 Linux.
Thank you guys for setting up such an awesome distribution. I have
been
looking for this for a long time. I have been reading and
learning . I
figured that I would reconfigure my hard rive so that I had an
extended
partition. This is what I changed it to hda1 26G ntfs, hda2 1G
Linux swap,
hda33G Linux, hda4 extended, hda5 fat16 5G, and hda6 4G Linux. I
reran the
grml2hd script, it went well, it said that lilo ran successfully.
However
it did not. So I mounted hda3 the Linux partition, and copied the
/mnt/hda3/etc/lilo.conf to the /etc/lilo.conf. I then ran /sbin/
lilo It
failed saying that /dev/hda3 is not set to be active. I then
discovered
that the line /device/hda3 was in the place where /dev/had been in my
original configuration. I attempted to change it to /dev/had. I
tried to
rerun lilo again, it failed attempting to map to unmapped device
oxoee or
something. I am sorry I did not write exactly what it said down.
However I
believe that you guys probably are familiar with what is
happening. I do
not have a clue though. I cannot seem to find any thing on what is
happening on the net either. Thank you guys in advanced.
Scott
