[Grml] Rerunning lilo

[Scott Ford]

Mika,
	That did it.  Thank you very much.  I did not know how or what
chroot was, and I did not know about mounting /proc, and /sys.  Them where
the reason for my failers.  Thanks again. Later
Scott

Ok, then boot into grml from CD. Run 'mount /mnt/hda3 ; chroot /mnt/hda3'
and edit /etc/lilo.conf.  Add the following lines to the end of your
/etc/lilo.conf:

other=/dev/hda1
label=Windows

so you can boot your WinXP installation on /dev/hda1 as well.
The rest looks ok.

Then run 'mount /proc ; mount /sys' and execute lilo afterwards.
'umount -a', leave the chroot via 'exit' and reboot your system.
It should work then.

regards,
