Everything they have there is
live. I need a rw filesystem.
We were in the right direction earlier, as FAT 16 partition produced a common LILO error, meaning that BIOS found the boot record. It would probably be better to figure out how to make LILO work on USB, as this would apply to all distros.
I read that the "L 99 99 99 99 99 99 " type error points to a corrupt MBR... So I wonder if there is any way to fix MBR from Linux. I don't have a Windows installation on that drive, so I won't have access to Windows recovery console via the install CD, even if I had one that is.
