    After completing install, drive will not boot

    After running knx-hdinstall and installing on a newly made linux partition ex3 and a linux swapfile and using Lilo bootloader, my computer will not start loading linux as it boots up. The linux partition is set as the boot partition. I also have a windows 2000 installation on a partition of the same disk if that is causing problems. Any reasons why this would happen?

    Uhm, it does boot Windows? You do you get the lilo boot display (some red box)? Have you installed Lilo in the MBR (default, "yes" in knx-hdinstall) or the Linux partition itself?
