Hi All sorted now. Just thought I'd give a quick rundown on how I did it (with a lot of help from a friend). - Boot from HD (as normal) on hda - mount CF on hdc - copy all files from HD to CF - shutdown - change IDE cables so that hda=CF and hdc=HD - boot from HD (hdc) - interrupt boot process with 'linux root=/dev/hda1' - this continued the boot on hda - once I had the prompt then modify lilo - and run lilo so that it needs hda only worked sweet. Thanks for your help Steve
