Can you post ur lilo.conf file. and ls -l /boot

That will give us a better idea of what may be going on.

Hi Keith,

Thanks for your reply.

I am doing the same as below.

Creating lilo.conf manually then chroot /mnt/sysimage & lilo -v but its giving /boot/vmlinux-2.4.... is too big.

What to do next?

Looks like the descriptor table is corrupt. LIL- = Descriptor table is corrupt. Caused by invalid parms in /etc/lilo.conf or /boot/boot.b was moved without re-running /sbin/lilo.

you can do a chroot to /mnt/sysimage before running lilo
