I have messed about with the config file for lilo (/etc/lilo.conf). this was so that i could added my new kernel as the default for startup but now my Linux box just freeze after the time to select an option is up. It will boot up fine if i stop the countdown and select my option. Any one know what is wrong with this?
Did you run the command, "lilo" after editing /etc/lilo.conf? If not, you'll find that it does indeed freeze when you try to boot from that option. Is the option you that selected the old kernel? If that's the case, just boot to the old kernel, run "lilo" and reboot. All should then be well.
