Hi to all,
I've just installed Linux (RH 5.1 from the 3 CD set). The install goes
smoothly, except for the LILO install. The RH doc says it needs to be on
SCSI ID 0, so I rearranged my IDs to accommodate. I want LILO on this
drive because I boot from OS/2 Boot Manager on my IDE drive. The install
goes OK up to the point of putting LILO on the drive, and it just comes
back to say an unspecified error has occured.
I can boot OK from the floppy, but without LILO there, I can't boot it
from Boot Manager. I sent a note to RH's install support, but have
received no reply. Does anyone have any suggestions?
This is my config:
IDE drive: 2 primary HPFS partitions
1 FAT partition
1 HPFS partition
SCSI adapter: Adaptec 2940U
ID 0 - 300 Meg IBM HD (picked it out of the trash bin
just for Linux. Works fine under OS/2)
1 - Toshiba CDROM
2 - Seagate tape drive
3 - Fujitsu 1 G HD (HPFS)
4 - UMAX 1220S scanner
5 - Seagate 1 G HD (HPFS)
The drives are all on the internal chain, everything else external,
everything terminated properly.
Thanks
Bill
