I have just installed SuSE on a friend's computer (IBM UDMA 13gb). This is the problem I have: the drive is identified in Linux as hdex, linux is on hde5, and lilo refuses to install on the MBR because it isn't hda. (Hda is the atapi cdrom on this computer). The Hd is partitioned like this 2gb win, 2 gb linux (thus safely under the 1024 cylinder limit), 128mb swap, 7gb win, the rest linux.. Is there a solution other than installing lilo on a floppy, which is the only thing i can get to work at the moment. i'm sure ther is... fx -- ______________________ Courtesy of SuSE Linux Kernel 2.2.16 (why worry?)
