I've successfully tracked down and fixed the RedHat-Athena (Linux)
Installation problem that caused LILO to fail.  The problem was due to
a bug in the (new) installation software placed on small-gods.

I've fixed the problem in the software and put a new install program
on small gods.  I've since been able to successfully install Linux on
a system, including LILO.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience I may have caused for the faulty
software.  mea culpa.

Have a Happy New Year!
