When creating a LILO configuration file, make sure you maintain a section for both the new kernel and the old kernel. Incorrectly installing new kernels can be a recipe for disaster. Even if your new kernel has some unexpected problem, you have an existing, known kernel to fall back on.

Reuse the /usr/src/linux.config file created by the kernel configuration process when upgrading between kernel revisions. This helps ensure you don’t forget support for vital hardware.

It is also a good idea to maintain a boot disk with a known working kernel with as few modules as possible. The simplest way to create such a boot disk is to write a copy of your kernel directly to the floppy:

dd if=/boot/vmlinuz of=/dev/fd0

and then tell it which file system to mount as root:

rdev /dev/fd0 /dev/hda2

Then, if your system will not boot for some reason, you can fall back to a kernel on removable media.

1. Restart the computer. At the LILO boot: prompt, press the Tab key.
2. You will see a list of kernels. I usually name my custom kernels by their version number, but the default SuSE kernel has the simple label linux. Regardless of the name, your default kernel is probably the first one listed. Type that name, a space, and then the word single, and press Enter.
3. Linux will now boot in single-user mode. Only the very basic daemons will start, and you will then be asked for the root password. Type it in, and you will be presented with a prompt.
4. You are now free to fix the problem. If a daemon was stalling and causing the boot to hang, you should either fix the daemon or disable it completely.
5. Once you are done, type exit. Linux should now boot normally.

For an even more minimal boot, try typing linux init=/bin/bash at the LILO prompt. This starts nothing but the Bash shell, bypassing any daemons or the prompt for a password. Only the root partition is mounted.

The second major group of system failures consists of various file system corruptions and outright mistakes. It is conceivable that an untimely power failure could corrupt files vital to booting even a rudimentary system. Perhaps more likely is that such files get altered or deleted by an overuse of the root account. There are many ways that a Linux system could become damaged, but in the end if the system becomes unbootable, you need to somehow recover from the emergency.

Although having a system fail to boot can be one of the most distressing types of failures, it’s not the only one you might have to guard against. Files and entire directories may get damaged or deleted over time. Mistakes and misfortunes do happen, so you need to know how to handle them. The following sections describe some of the options you have after the system fails to boot, files or file systems get corrupted, or you forget the root password.

Installs can be done by any of a number of means . The most common currently is from a CD or DVD into an optical drive that can read it. For example if the install is larger one – then a dvd rather than CDRom might be used. DVD readers and burners can read both CDs and DVDs wheras the converse is not true. A Cd reader or burner can not read a DVD .

CDs hold 640 mb of capacity. This is equivalent to 640 old 1 mb capacity floppy discs. A DVD generally holds approx 4.4 gb ( 1000 mb ) of data. A DVD holds the equivalent data of almost 7 (seven ) CDs. It used to be that CDS were run of the mill and blank DVDs were a lot more expensive – both the blank and by equivalent capacity. However this is not the case now. A blank DVD is approx the cost of a CD. However DVDs are less durable and more easily scratch able. One little scratch on a DVD can mean a whole wasted exercise of doing the Linux install. Worse than that the failure from the media install disc can happen right at the end of the process – having you scratch your head at the wasted time.

CDs are more durable. However in the summer time just a little bit of deposited dirt or grime can cause the same Linux OS install failure as that of the DVD. The answer – simply wipe the CD clean with water – a bit of soap if necessary. Wash the CD clearly – especially the downwards side which is the side which gets read by the optical drive reader. Most important dry both sides of the media – but with a very soft towel or even sock. Do not use a paper towel or tissue. This may scratch the install media.
