I made /dev/hda1 = /boot partition, then /dev/hda2 = / and /dev/hda3 extended and /dev/hda6 my swap, and /dev/hda5 and /dev/hda7 as linux partitions. I mke2fs format all of the partitions, and mkswap /dev/hda6. I mounted /dev/hda2 to /hd, then install-to-hd. Reboot, hit CTRL at LILO, then hd root=/dev/hda2.

 

To install LILO to hd, I enter lilo -v

 

I eject floppy disk #1, then reboot. After the hardware info and BIOS version is displayed, it hangs up.

 

Where in this procedure did I go wrong?

 

Thanks,

TheBastard

There is nothing on my HD, I have a spare laptop with no OS, but I would
like to copy BL3.5 directly to the HD. How do I do this?

Thanks again.

First, you need to partition the HD.  I suggest you make
two partitions:  a linux partition and a swap partition.
You might also like to leave some HD space unpartitioned
in case you want to create a third (or fourth) partition
in the future.

The tool you use to partition the HD is fdisk:
--------------
fdisk /dev/hda
--------------
press n to create a new partition (primary, not extended)
press t to change the partition type (82 for swap).

I suggest you make the first partition (/dev/hda1) swap
and the second partition (/dev/hda2) Linux.

The second step is to format the Linux partition.
The tool for this is mke2fs:
----------------
mke2fs /dev/hda2
----------------
That assumes that /dev/hda2 is your Linux partition.

The third step is to mount your Linux partition at /hd:
--------------------
mount /dev/hda2  /hd
--------------------

The fourth step is to install BL3 to your Linux partition:
-------------
install-to-hd
-------------

Cheers,
Steven

Have you decided which server software to use?
