The BIOS numbers your disks 0x80, 0x81, etc. and it is impossible to decide which Linux disk corresponds to which BIOS disk (since this depends on the BIOS setup, and on the type of BIOS), so if you have an unusual setup you need to state the correspondence between Linux disks and BIOS disks. For example, disk=/dev/sda bios=0x80 disk=/dev/hda bios=0x81 Brian Michalk wrote: > > This came up a week or two ago. > > How do I tell Lilo that disk 0x5d01 is really disk 0x80? > > To unsubscribe, send "unsubscribe mtd" to majordomo@infradead.org -- Tim Riker - http://rikers.org/ - short SIGs!
