BDI-LIVE_rc37 /question 4 Jon..

Howdy..

When I installed Rc_37, I think I missed something on the install.
I set the lilo boot to first sector. Should it have been installed to
root sector?
It boots with linux, looks good, but EMC exits as soon as it starts.
The screen flicks as the console starts adn exits.. Looks like it
didn't install the RTAI to the proper place? Something is causing a
major exit in script.

How do I fix it to install on the hard drive? Morphix amazes me, it
has all the features of the Mandrake 9.2 presently on my machine. I
plan in installing it to my shop machine as the only OS.
