Hi,
To overcome LM 8.2 install problems I faced, I have had to perform a series
of installs, upgrade installs and package upgrades. I ended up with some
directories that had superfluous entries.
I have listed out the contents of lilo.conf and the contents of some
directories. There is obvious redundant files but some are not so obvious to
me. Can someone glance over them quickly and help me identify what files to
delete please?
The file called "kcore" in the /proc listed below looks to me suspicous. Also
some of the files in the /lib directory look redundant. Some of these files
are not used by the lilo.conf file, also listed below.
I have also listed out the /etc directory contents. I think there may be at
least one redundant file there.
Can someone help me identify the redundant files? You can reply directly to
my email address and not the list.
The contens of the lilo.conf file is ar follows:
boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b

keytable=/boot/us.klt
