I've installed FC4 to the master drive. All went well until the Reboot. Then it attempted to launch Mandriva - it reports a kernel panic because it can't find init. I was going to change that box onto FC4 within the next few days anyway, so I don't want to recover Mandriva, only the data. It appears that lilo is suddenly working! Question - why is it trying to boot from hdb, rather than hda, where FC4 is? What can I do about it? Anne
