Re: [Devil-linux-develop] usb boot

[Bruce S. <bw...@ar...>]

OK, I installed the lilo RPM, and tried again.
Two new problems:


  cp: cannot stat `/boot/mbr.b': No such file or directory

No clue what that file is, so ...

I commented out that "cp", and continued (with "sh -x"):  

  + lilo -r ./tmp/mnt2 -C /boot/lilo.conf -M /dev/sdb
  usage: lilo [ -C config_file ] -q [ -m map_file ] [ -v ... ]
       lilo [ -C config_file ] [ -b boot_device ] [ -c ] [ -l | -L ]
            [ -i boot_sector ] [ -m map_file ] [ -d delay ]
            [ -v ... ] [ -t ] [ -s save_file | -S save_file ]
            [ -P fix | -P ignore ] [ -r root_dir ] [ -w ]
       lilo [ -C config_file ] [ -m map_file ] -R [ word ... ]
       lilo [ -C config_file ] -I name [ options ]
       lilo [ -C config_file ] [ -s save_file ] -u | -U [ boot_device ]
       lilo -V


It appears like you're running an old version of lilo.
"-M" is no longer a valid option.

I removed the "-M" option from the lilo command, but I don't have 
high hopes for this thing booting.  :-)
