      partitioning problems

      Hi,

      I have a 80 GB harddisk.

      I have partitioned as 10:20:20:20 & (10).

      I have left (10) as unpartitioned space.

      How do I intall the boot loader - bcoz its not intalling properly - after reboot I still get the Win Selection menu.

      I am using LILO since grub is giving errors - program to big to fit into memory ??

      I installed LILO in MBR - didnt work.

      Any other way around ?

      [I dont have a floppy drive - so bootdisk trick doesnt work ]

      Bye.
