the HD install works but I'm unable to connect to internet unlike the liveCD which works fine..during boot I can see where its unable to find /lib/modules/blah ..and sure enough there is nothing there...

problem is its defaulting to installing lilo on the device where I install my / to which is /dev/hdb..however that wont work because I need win2000 as well ( must be first booting HD ) which is on /dev/hda

how do I edit the script for this configuration?

I tried adding /dev/hda after 'mkliloboot' in the script but that ended in a kernel panic LOL..



thx

In /etc/lilo.conf you can specify the location where the boot block will be installed. It can either be a partition (eg. boot=/dev/sda1) or the raw device (eg. boot=/dev/sda), in which case the MBR is overwritten. Be sure to run /sbin/lilo after changing lilo.conf.
