I upgraded RH5.1 to RH5.2 from ftp.cdrom.com and everything seemed to go
well untill the installation of LILO. It would not install LILO in the
master boot partition. I have two hard drives. The first is a dos drive
(win95) and the second is divided between dos (hdb5) and linux. If I
restart the computer (a Dell 133 Pentium) it will boot win95 at the LILO
prompt. Trying to boot linux does not work. It simply hangs. I assume
this is the 5.1 LILO. Using the boot disk that you can create when you
upgrade will boot 5.2 and it seems to function normally. Any suggestions
for being able to boot Linux from LILO?
