How would I configure > LILO (or is there something else/better?)?? Short version - you need to fix all the config files on the drive to point to /dev/hd*b* instead of /dev/hd*a*. Usually, thats Lilo (/etc/lilo.conf) and mount points (/etc/fstab) Long version - insert a bootable distribution disk in your (new) machine and boot from it, using recover mode. Edit /etc/lilo.conf to match your new system config. Rename the boot.* files in /boot to something else so that lilo will back up your new boot sector, and run lilo ('lilo'). Edit /etc/fstab to match your new system config. Reboot. If I have not missed anything, you should be up and running. > Is there a resource on the www that someone can point me to? Oh, probably, but I don't know them off hand ;-) rc
