Mika, Thank you, for your help.I do not know what chroot environment Is. I am guessing that it is when I use the live cd to boot?.. I do not know how to mount the /proc and /sys? Will mounting the root linux /dev/hda3 partition make this happen? I have attached my lilo.conf file. /dev/hda1 26Gb ntfs win xp. /dev/hda2 1gb linux swap /dev/hda3 3Gb Linux root /dev/hda4 extended partition /dev/hda5 5Gb fat32 storage /dev/hda6 4Gb linux future /usr/home
I'm not *really* sure what's going o n because it's very hard to read your text. Using newlines to separate some sentences would simplify it. But let me guess what might be your problem:
Looks like you installed lilo into the partition where you did install grml into, instead of installing lilo into MBR of your harddisk.
Make sure the line containing boot= in /etc/lilo.conf is correct (AFAICS you need /dev/hda for it) and rerun lilo then. Make sure /proc and /sys are mounted if you are running lilo in a chroot environment.
If that Mika, Thank you, for your help.I do not know what chroot environment Is. I am guessing that it is when I use the live cd to boot?.. I do not know how to mount the /proc and /sys?

If that does not work please show your lilo.conf (just attach it to your mail) and the commands you are using to fix your setup.
