Use "linux single" at the LILO prompt, then you'll be in single user mode and can have your way with the box. Of course, this will only work properly if the box is really yours and you have a legitimate reason to be doing this. I trust that this is the case for you. If not, the laws of nature and of nature's God will come crashing down on you (so I've heard). Truly, Jonathan -- / Jonathan R.
