slack10.0 install
 

Ok, so after I selected the menu "version" of installing and chose the packages I wanted, after installing I got an error on lilo which said I should fix it manually. Not a problem, but I'm getting some sort of GRUB SH and it doesn't enter the OS I just installed. I don't really get it, could anyone give me an short brief ?

it sounds like a previous install of some program has tried to install grub into your mbr. would probably be best to make sure your mbr is fresh before installing.

while installing lilo. choose expert mode. then do these in orde;
begin> linux (enter the /dev that your linux is installed, and a name for your linux)> windows (if your have)> install >
do these to MBR and that is all

Thank you very much.
