LILO

[Clint Thayer]

I seem to recall that the drive is on the sec IDE bus...  I guess it didn't
cross my mind that it should be on the pri...

What should I be looking for in these lilo.conf and fstab files?

do you think I can just swap the sec and pri ide buses and it will work?

thanks mike

Do you have your install on your primary master hard drive? That is what HDA
is. Check out /etc/lilo.conf and see what it says, then check out /etc/fstab
and see if lilo is indeed pointing to the right drive.
