Re: kt7-raid
I don't think there's any risk involved but you could edit the lilo.conf
file and change the line boot=/dev/hda to boot=/dev/fd0. Insert a floppy
(not your boot floppy) and run lilo. This would set up the boot loader
on the floppy. Reboot with the 'lilo' floppy in the drive. If everything
works then it is in the boot sector on the hard drive. If not then it is
the kernel image on the hard drive. Don't forget to reset the lilo.conf
file. Also, I'm not sure if this procedure wipes out the boot loader in
the mbr or if it is still available. You may need to run lilo again
after resetting the lilo.conf file.
Anyway, I gotta go. Will check for any further info either later tonight
or tomorrow. Good luck.
