the check for lilo: [ ! -f /etc/lilo.conf -o ! -x /sbin/lilo ] you dont have those files on your system do you ? i updated the patch to look for /boot/vmlinuz instead of /vmlinuz There are some more silly things in the mkboot-script. Pleasy have a look at this diff:
*** mkboot 2004-11-28 11:50:39.000000000 +0100
--- mkboot.work 2004-11-28 11:49:29.891521936 +0100
