Hi All,
I had installed Redhat Linux 9.0 in the server configuration. There are two hard disks managed by a "hardware RAID". So, both hard disks have mirror images of the files. I was not able to boot without the boot floppy. I checked the lilo.conf file and every thing seems to be OK with it. Then I used /sbin/lilo -v ..... lilo was written on the MBR but still I cant boot without the boot-disk, is there something special that I need to do in order to install LILO when I have two hard disks managed by hardware RAID. PLEASE HELP.....
THANKS.
