->installation disk. Does anybody have any ideas as to how to fix this? ->THANKS very much for your help. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Use the boot installed system option and once the machine is booted you should run these commands..
mk_initrd && lilo
This will most likely fix your problem.
