[plug] Mandrake 7.2 install hassles

[Dennis Plester]

Leon,

Thanks for the info, I'll try that next if I still don't succeed. By the
way, with this problem, it won't let me make a boot floppy either, as the
installer reports an error and skips it. This problem was also reported as
part of this install bug on the Mandrake 7.2 bug list, by others with the
same problem as me.

Dennis.

	Make a boot follopy during the install, boot from it and run LILO
instead of
	grub.

	the /etc/lilo.conf file will be right, but the installer chooses
grub by
	default.
