Hi:

dd if=/dev/sda2 of=/bootsect.lnx bs=512 count=1
mcopy /bootsect.lnx a:
do you have boot=/dev/sda2 in lilo.conf?
Then under NT copied the bootsect.lnx to C:\
do you have the entry in boot.ini to point to bootsect.lnx?
and when I reboot and select linux
it starts up ok but hangs up after LI
it happened to me when I forgot to run lilo before dd, or lilo pointed to
something else than the place I dd'ed from
This used to work with the earlier kernels. Am I doing something
wrong or is the procedure changed for the new kernels?
The processor is a Pentium III Xeon.
it is probably an oversight on your side...
In my home computer, (Pentium II) I did the same thing, but there
I was successful!
Right now I boot up from the floppy disk, but I'd like to
get away from that.
Thanks for any suggestions.
cheers, dragos
