lilo.conf

All I had to do was mount hda7 and make it rw from the desktop. Then in a root shell I cp /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 /mnt/hda7/etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and reboot without the CD. Viola, ca c'est fini!

BTW, anyone have trouble doing this with knoppix-installed as debian PCs? I did this with 20031119 and ended up with a text-only login screen....

I then tried this with a knoppix-installed as knoppix PC (also 20031119) and the file on /mnt/hda7 did not exist (usually I have to write over it)....

Something wierd here.

TIA,

When I knoppix-installer 20031119 as knoppix, there is no file /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, but there is a file /etc/X11/XF86Config-4.in, should I modify that one?

Well I tried that, and my screen=1024x768 did not work. Should I modify /etc/X11/XF86Config instead?

TIA,
