What does gfxboot do?
It's the package where the lilo graphical screen is stored.
Also check that /etc/lilo.conf
has a line
message = /boot/message
and that /boot/boot.b is a symlink to /boot/boot-menu.b
Are there different versions of /boot/boot-menu.b and /boot/message for SuSE 7.x and SuSE 8.0? I observe that boot-menu is part of the package lilo, but /boot/message is, according to "rpm -qf", not owned by any package.
Then that's your problem, as I suspected. The upgrade has kept the old message file somehow. /boot/message is the image lilo displays on bootup. So install gfxboot and rerun lilo. //Anders
