Assigning to an engineer. What did you lilo.conf look like before the upgrade? Created attachment 61988 [details]
lilo.conf prior to running RH 7.3 install
I've attached the the last lilo.conf before the install. When I reran the RH 7.3 install and selected create a new boot config, it offered the choice between the MBR on /dev/hda and /dev/hda10 . Thanks- Douglas And am I correct in assuming that you don't have /boot as a separate partition? That's correct. Here's df -T output. The first group of partitions are mounted R/W by default: [root@PII450DMW new]# df -T Filesystem Type 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/hda10 ext2 427796 190776 214933 48% / /dev/hdc7 ext2 979450 639559 289288 69% /home /dev/hdc9 ext2 2035606 1219739 710643 64% /opt /dev/hda14 ext2 2016016 1791392 122212 94% /usr /dev/hdc8 ext2 1018298 119806 845881 13% /usr/local /dev/hdc6 ext2 349910 65680 266159 20% /var none tmpfs 127888 0 127888 0% /dev/shm /dev/hda2 hpfs 313266 191344 121922 62% /C: /dev/hda6 umsdos 120204 84364 35840 71% /D: /dev/hda7 hpfs 160618 67552 93066 43% /E: /dev/hda8 hpfs 208812 164834 43978 79% /F: /dev/hda9 hpfs 64228 40756 23472 64% /G: /dev/hda12 hpfs 32098 21183 10915 66% /I: /dev/hda13 hpfs 3076416 1620550 1455866 53% /J: /dev/hda16 hpfs 5767302 4940999 826303 86% /L: /dev/hdc12 hpfs 5245190 1290309 3954881 25% /M: These additional partitions aren't normally mounted.

Thanks- Douglas I've tweaked this code some and it gets it right for me in our current internal development trees Time tracking values updated I'm going through Bugzilla closing some bugs that have been marked as Modified for some period of time. I believe that most of these issues have been fixed, so I'm resolving these bugs as Rawhide. If the bug you are seeing still exists, please reopen this report and mark it as Reopened. |
