sample "lilo.conf", anyone?

[Janina Sajka]

Hmmm ...

I can't remember if it's Ctrl-X or Alt-X -- But, if you haven't replaced 
the default /boot/message file, you have to do this to get to a command 
prompt.

I don't remember which it is because I always replace my /boot/message 
with a file like the one attached. Part of the reason is the Ctrl-G chars 
that beep the speaker to let me know I'm at the lilo boot> prompt.

PS: Can you attach your lilo.conf so we can see if there's anything else?
