Re: Lil as in Lilo

Lilo messages at boot time usually indicate the failure to run ...../sbin/lilo....after creating lilo.conf if including new kernels, or if Lilo was upgraded when you downloaded your recent packages.

Checkout on the Archlinux home page,  the INSTALLATION GUIDE for help in correcting your lilo problem.  The wiki also addresses the problem.

Hey thanks for the quick respons..

Shouldn't that be corrected by running lilo after the upgrade, because im pretty sure i did do that..?
