Re: [SLE] Booting from the lilo prompt

Hi, A compressed linux kernel is on your boot floppy, in its mbr. By the way, if all you wanted to do was pass kernel parameters: you can just type them in the graphical boot menu. Tim On Wed, Sep 12, 2001 at 06:26:41PM +0000, Peter Dixson wrote:

Thanks Chris, I think I pressed every key except Esc in an effort to get the boot prompt. Can you tell me what is on my boot floppy, I can't mount it as it says 'cannot determine the file system'. I am happy with booting from the floppy. I once installed Corel linux which booted from the mbr and I ended up replacing the hard disk. Peter
