KidEvil LQ Newbie Registered: Sep 2003 Location: Earth Posts: 7 Rep:	boot.b missing I'm trying to backup my system using Mondo Archive and it came across a problem when trying to backup my system. Mondo could not find my /boot/boot.b file. I can honestly say that I don't recall ever having a boot.b file. The install= line is not in my lilo.conf, either. My system seems to boot and work fine without it. I'm running Slackware 9.1 with Linux 2.6.0. I guess my question is, where is this missing file and how can I painlessly place it in /boot so that I can get Mondo Archive working?
