Unhappy LILO goes nowhere on my machine


Hi, guys

I am facing a strange problem. After I successfully installed the RH7.2 and reboot the computer, LILO did not show up at all, instead, the original win2000 boot menu promped (problem existed whether I put the LILO in MBR or a seperate partition within 1024 cyl).

Everything was just fine when using mandrake 7.0/7.2/8.0. I think I configured the RH's LILO as the same way in mandrake.

Somebody help me please. thanks a lot.

did you create a resuce disk.. with that you should be able to boot into linux and reconfigure lilo to be as your boot loader, installing it back onto the MBR..
