Alex,
I had no idea that the reader cdrom which is my hdc should be emulating
a scsi device as does my cdrwrom on hdd.
However, I tried to repeat line 12 but quoting hdc in my /etc/lilo.conf
and in running it claimed 'line 13 unsupported by lilo'. I knocked out
append and other encumbrance's, but still the same response.
May I thank you for your interest and for your kind reply.
Malcolm Candlish.
