1. How to increase ext2 qemu BL-3.5qemu.img size? I tried: a) cat BL3-5img > new.img b) dd if=/dev/zero of=temp.img bs=1k count=300000 c) cat temp.img >> new.img d) qemu -hda new.img -cdrom gparted.iso -boot d I used gparted to resize hda1 (in new.img) to full size of new.img. e) qemu -hda new.img It prints LI and stops. No LO for LILO :(. How to force lilo to run? 2. How /etc/lilo.conf should be to install lilo to another image? qemu -hda BL3-5qemu.img -hdb new.img -boot c lilo should be installed to /dev/hdb1 (new.img) but i can't manage to create correct /etc/lilo.conf I also did after booting: mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt chroot /mnt lilo but it doesn't work, either. 3. BTW there is something wrong with initrd.gz in DOS version of BL3.5 In qemu, I boot BasicLinux from DOS (C:\baslin), I do: startx, choose A, B, or C; PS/2 mouse, 2 buttons (this config works with BL3-5qemu.img), press Enter and... and I get a blank screen. I did also: mounted another copy of FS.IMG, deleted all files, mounted copy of BL3-5qemu.img, copied all files form BL3-5qemu.img to FS.IMG, unmounted both and rebooted. BasicLinux boots, I do startx, choose again A, B, or C; PS/2 mouse, 2 buttons, press Enter and... and again a blank screen. Which is quite strange as qemu -hda BL3-5qemu.img works OK and startx and JWM work too. Rod
