Debian boot problem
 
I have installed Slackware on /dev/sda6 and lilo at MBR, after that I installed Debian Squeeze beta2 on /dev/sda7 and grub at first section of /dev/sda7, I added at /etc/lilo.conf in Slack record for Debian ( I was doing this with other versions of Debian and it worked ), but when I try to enter to Debain I got error message
Quote:

First sector of /dev/sda7 doesn't have a valid boot signature
Can anybody help ?

Can you post your /etc/lilo.conf and the output of df -hT?

Sorry, I meant fdisk -l (I wanted to look at your partition scheme).
