Did you try to do the LinuxConf command and install lilo from there ??

Sigh....well today UPS left me a package with my Microsoft Win98 SE update
in it, so I (gulp) installed it. It overwrote my lilo on the mbr of sda.
My system consists of two scsi drives, scsi 0 has Win 98 in one partition
and scsi 1 has mdk 6.0 w/3 partitions a swap, /boot and /. When I executed
/sbin/lilo I was told there was no
/etc/lilo.conf. So I created the below file in hopes I was correct with the
settings and it would work. When I again executed /sbin/lilo it seemed to
access only scsi 1 and when I rebooted the mbr was still under Microsoft
control.
boot=/dev/sdb
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.9-19mdk
label=linux
root=/dev/sdb6
read-only
other=/dev/sda
label=dos
table=/dev/sda
What must I do to get lilo re-installed on scsi 0 and are my settings in my
new lilo.conf correct (what happened to lilo.conf anyway, why did it
disappear from /etc)?
