I had two IDE HDD on IDE 1. One HDD master for WIN98 and the slave drive was my linux HDD.
I had one CD-ROM on IDE 2 as stand alone.

Then,

I got rid of the CD-ROM and put IDE 1 and IDE 2 as drives set as stand alone. The WIN98 HDD is IDE 1 and works fine. The linux HDD is IDE 2 and when I tried to boot into linux I got a kernel panic and it couldn't find the fs and hung.

Advice??

You need to tell LILO what direction to point the kernel. Get a bootdisk, fix /etc/lilo.conf, and have LILO reread the config file.

"fix /etc/lilo.conf"[/B]

Sorry, but I'm a newbie, but when i edit the lilo.conf file, will it be obvious as to what syntax to change?

Thanks.

If it was hdb and hdb# before, then it will now be hdc and hdc#.

Perhaps someone else could verify this.
