Dear john
This doesn't work either i can't get lilo to start
anymore with this option.
I'm perplexed, adding nobiospnp to the append line of /etc/lilo.cong would not stop lilo from appearing.
Also when i get into theThere is some confusion here, what lilo boot disc,
system (i managed that through a lilo boot disk
don't you mean mandrake boot disc or slackware boot disc, or
some other distro's bootdisc, because lilo means " Linux loader"
programme, it does not have a boot disc as such.
I would not be so quick to condem your current Kernel.
M9.0 works with most current processors and mobos.
I cannot remember whether you said you were dual linux
or dual windblows/linux booting. but either way you need
to install lilo , and I just hoped adding nobiospnp to the
append= line in /etc/lilo.conf would stop the boot from
hanging
My best guess is that you don't have lilo
installed anywhere at the moment, because you said
you do not have lilo at all. So if you can bear to start
again do another mandrake full install but take
time to add nobiospnp to the append line in
the lilo stanzas you create in the mandrake/lilo install
eliment of that programme. Take time and care to
create the correct entries and don't forget to make
yourself a new mandrake bootdisc.
then if you still get hangups on booting, or if the
mandrake bootdisc also hangs then it aint
the nobiospnp problem as such.
