Re-emerge and re-install Grub. If Grub hangs when you try to install |
| 18 |
it, which I assume is what is happening, then you can try starting as: # |
| 19 |
grub --no-floppy, to see if it works. Grub hanging basically implies |
| 20 |
that there's a hardware hick up of some sort. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
If Lilo works fine regardless and re-emerging/re-installing Grub does |
| 23 |
not resolve the problem, could you please show us your Lilo config file |
| 24 |
to see if we can draw some parallels between the two boot loaders. |
