Where is silo.conf? And if you have a separate partition for /boot directory, do you have the symbolic link
(I think either the silo install or baselayout install should set this up, but for that to happen, your boot partition must be mounted on /boot. If your /boot partition otherwise looks good, you can set up that symbolic link by hand just by
| Code: |
mount /dev/<boot-partition> /boot # If necessary
cd /boot
ln -s ./ boot
|
If /boot is a separate partition, don't forget the step 'silo -C /boot/silo.conf' . Although if you are getting as far as you are, you must have taken care of this.)
Hope this is of some use.
Regards, |
