Thanks Riley, but that did not solve it. See below.
Must I change or delete the mbr on /dev/hda?
When I reboot it tells me that (I try to translate that from German here)
it is missing a boot system. (something like operating system not found)
I guess that is because I have also win98 installed and now it (that means
the rest of the data in the mbr) seems to search for win98, but now the
activated partition is hda2-linux, including the lilo with these results:
linux:~ # lilo
Added l *
Added failsafe
Warning: CHANGE AUTOMATIC assumed after "other=/dev/hda3"
Added w
Added memtest86
TABLE may not be specified near line 46 in file /etc/lilo.conf
What does that "CHANGE AUTOMATIC" mean?
/dev/hda3 is my W98 partition.
And what about that sentence that the table
may not be specified? Line 46 ist the EOF!!! So what table???
