"Kevin Huang Y.T." <huangyut@cse.msu.edu> writes: I'm installing redhat on my AST J50 Laptop. Almost the end of the installation, when I'm going through the step to install lilo, the system returns this message: First sector of /dev/hda5 doesn't have a valid boot signature. You are doing something wrong. The message above can only appear if you are *uninstalling* LILO with the command `lilo -u'. There is no way for it to appear when installing LILO. -- Regarding a Microsoft/Xerox agreement: "This is a match made in heaven. Both companies excel at copying other people's work." --douglas@min.net <URL:http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=99/05/16/2211252>
