    Hi everyone,

    I have created bootable ISO CD (with isolinux.bin) and started Linux with
    it.
    Then I formated my hard driver /dev/hda, created a new root file system on
    it.

    How can I make my hard-driver bootable?

    I tried to use the lilo command to install LILO on it, but it didn't work
    properly.
    When I rebooted the system from hard-driver, the system has the exact
    mounting
    configuration as I called the lilo command, e.g. the / is mounted on
    /dev/ram0.
    But I want to mount / to /dev/hda1.

    Is there another way to make a hard driver bootable?

    Thanks in advance,

    James X. Li
