*** Bug 5600 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Upgrading the system (or just the lilo package) is killing the old /etc/lilo.conf file, and not saving a copy in an .rpmsave file. The workaround is to make a backup of lilo.conf before you upgrade. The real fix is to set up /etc/lilo.conf as a %config file in the rpm.... ------- Additional Comments From ian 10/05/99 17:29 ------- This is the same as #5512 |
