Ooops -
I apologize for the dispensing the wrong information. I realized that when
I checked the upgrade directory on the RH site. (I don't have the rpms any
longer)
What I did when running lilo gave me errors after the install is:
Boot with a bootdisk, cd to the directory on my disk where I had downloaded
all the updates from ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/redhat-4.0/updates/i386/
Then did 'rpm -Uvh *.rpm' and was able to run lilo.
I really don't know which update solved the problem...
Hope that works and sorry for the confusion.
Tom
