Hi everyone, I am new to the list and Linux. I installed GRML on my Toshiba a55. I am blind and I was able to resize my hard drive, and install the grml to the hard drive with no problem. This is what I had partitioned my hard drive to, hda1 26G, hda2 2g fat32, hda3 1G Linux swap, and hda4 Linux. Thank you guys for setting up such an awesome distribution. I have been looking for this for a long time. I have been reading and learning . I figured that I would reconfigure my hard rive so that I had an extended partition. This is what I changed it to hda1 26G ntfs, hda2 1G Linux swap, hda33G Linux, hda4 extended, hda5 fat16 5G, and hda6 4G Linux. I reran the grml2hd script, it went well, it said that lilo ran successfully. However it did not. So I mounted hda3 the Linux partition, and copied the /mnt/hda3/etc/lilo.conf to the /etc/lilo.conf. I then ran /sbin/ lilo It failed saying that /dev/hda3 is not set to be active. I then discovered that the line /device/hda3 was in the place where /dev/had been in my original configuration. I attempted to change it to /dev/had. I tried to rerun lilo again, it failed attempting to map to unmapped device oxoee or something. I am sorry I did not write exactly what it said down. However I believe that you guys probably are familiar with what is happening. I do not have a clue though. I cannot seem to find any thing on what is happening on the net either. Thank you guys in advanced. Scott
