Donald,
Have you actually installed the system yet? If you have, and you are having the LI problem, the boot from floppy and the following commands
mount /dev/hda12 /mnt
lilo -r /mnt
umount /mnt
reboot
that should take care of that.
The only real problem I can see for you to install on hda12 is that the kernel needs to reside on the first 1024 cylinders of the drive. I am not sure if your partition map is laid out that way or not. Why so many
partitions?

Hi,
I burned the CD,started it and it jams at LI
Created Boot and Root Floppys
It Booted to the menu.
I Followed up to the point of Formatting drive.
I Have 18 Partitions on this hard Drive,and wanted
To overwrite Partition /dev/hda12
But what it wanted to do was Format Drive Hda
and Install it on a Clean Drive.
Is There a way to install it to /dev/hda12?
That is what I selected ,when asked where to install.
Thanks in advance.
