I dont have two optical drives (pluged in at the moment) but i do have a flash drive that i was booting from and a cd rom drive...

Anyhow, i will try with a cd in the drive at a later time as i have work soon (10 min)

thanks for your reply.

Yep, that did the trick on the install error

AND i've fixed my other problem;

you see lilo was originally configured where hda1 was the primary master so "root=/dev/hda1" was in the configuration file. But on the other compter i was accidentally pluging the drive into the secondary master IDE channel so lilo would then need "root=/dev/hdc1" (not what it had of corse)

so plugging the drive into the other IDE channel fixed it strange as it might seem.

I am posting not logged in because firefox had an error and dillo seems just too crappy to handle loging in (althogh i do seem to recal it working a long time ago, it dosent matter.
