Hi,
my Redhat 7.1 doesn’t boot, so I want to edit lilo.conf after booting with a boot floppy. This boot disk was created with these two files under Win98:
ftp://ftp.rz.uni-kiel.de/pub2/linux/redhat/9/en/os/i386/images/bootdisk.img
and rawrite.exe
But with it I can’t reach the file lilo.conf in the hard disk. There’re five options after booting with this floppy
F1-Main, F2-Options, F3-General, F4-Kernel, F5-Rescue
But after choosing F5 I can't continue at this stage:
What type of media contains the packages to be installed?
Local CDROM
Hard drive
NFS image
FTP
HTTP
I don't want to reinstall Linux, but edit lilo.conf. In other words, how can I get to the normal shell command mode and reach my hard disk?
Thanks
Shang
