Lilo


I'm trying to boot from a CD, or floppy. I set the boot order in the BIOS so that they were both above the hdd, but LILO still loads, and I can't boot from a CD-Rom/Floppy...

Oh btw, im using a win98 boot disk and/or a win98 se cd.

It looks like the problem is with your bios/hardware or boot disks rather than Lilo.
