A few RedHat questions


Since my redhat crashed, and I reinstalled it. Before, I can configure in a configuration file(can't remember what it is), when LILO boot, it gives me a prompt like this:

LILO boot:

then I can type which os I want to boot.

Now when the LILO boot, it gives me a low resolution image, and let me choose which os I want to boot, how can I change it back to prompt mode?

Also, where I can download "Courier New" font for Linux so that I can use this font for Console.

Another one is I accidently remove the up2date icon, the red one, and I add it back to the panel by right clicking panle and add it, the I only can choose the green one, and it seems not working, I mean it won't check if update available since it is always green, and when I click on it, nothing happens, and the icon size seems larger than before, how can I add the icon back to panel correctly.

Thanks in advance.

You can change LILO by editing /etc/lilo.conf. After you have saved your changes then type in:

lilo

at the command prompt to make your changes take effect.
