Hi, everyone.

I have recently added an IDE ZIP drive to the system, and when I run lilo I get the following messages:

Jan 22 16:01:05 werewolf kernel: ide-floppy: hda: I/O error, pc =  0, key =  2,
asc = 3a, ascq =  0
Jan 22 16:01:05 werewolf kernel: ide-floppy: hda: I/O error, pc = 1b, key =  2,
asc = 3a, ascq =  0
Jan 22 16:01:05 werewolf kernel: ide-floppy: hda: I/O error, pc = 5a, key =  5,

asc = 24, ascq = 0

Also, if I run lilo with the zip (/dev/hda) mounted, or unmounted but still inserted, I get:

Warning: /dev/sda is not on the first disk

and the box does not boot, get stuck at 'LI'. If I run lilo without a zip in the drive, I get the above messages but al works allright.

Is there any way to say lilo to ignore hda ?

My /etc/fstab:

/dev/sda1 / ext2 defaults 1 1
/dev/sda8 swap swap defaults 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
swapfs /dev/shm swapfs defaults 0 0

Have a look to the lilo.conf man page at the keyword "disk=".
