I know that it's /me/ who wants /help/. But why does nobody read what I
wrote? I'll quote again from my first posting:

BTW: I have read the Bootdisk-HOWTO, the Hard-Disk-Upgrade-mini-HOWTO,
the Large-Disk-HOWTO, the LILO-mini-HOWTO, the
Multiboot-with-LILO-mini-HOWTO and the Partition-mini-HOWTO.
There's *no* answer to my question in them!
Thanks in advance for every constructive help. :-)
Greetings,
Stefan.
