kernel help


i just installed a new kernel (2.6.5) and i did everything just fine and everything went smoothly except when i typed in /sbin/lilo i get this error:

bash-2.05b# /sbin/lilo
Unrecognized token "/etc/lilo.conf" at or above line 6 in file '/etc/lilo.conf'

any way to fix this?

I got the same thing recently. When you created the label's for your kernel - "label=YOURLABEL" did you put a space in the name? If so, put a dash or an underscore and that should fix it.
