Ok, my host install FC4 with lilo, so I update to F8. I suppose the update script from Fedora keep lilo and don't use grub at all.
not sure about this one. i could never get lilo to boot an fc4 install. i skipped fc4 -> 7 and fresh installed f8 with grub for boot loader. i had continuous problems trying to get lilo to boot f8 and at time, grub was a practical and easy way out. i you *have to have* lilo, best to log their site and check forums, faqs for info. i understand it can be done and will check in future as to just how to do it.
Now how can I reinstall lilo to make boot.b appears. I have only one chance :) (remote location) I am not sure that my system will reboot properly without this file, am i right ?
run 'lilo -v -t <enter>' for 'verbose test' to see what will happen. being you are remote, if you have both fc4 and f8 installed, set your 'lilo.conf' to boot f8 via _selection_ and old kernel by default. this way, you fall back to a good install. hth. -- tc,hago. g . in a free world without fences, who needs gates. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
