SuSE Linux PowerPC: Version 7.1
During Installation RPM gives an error. Lilo cannot be executed as described in the Manual. After reboot the system doesn't start.
For reasons unknown to us at the moment lilo isn't installed completely and the Kernel not installed at all.
Make sure, that you have created a small Bootpartition (4MB) during Installation.
Insert CD1 and mount it with
mount /cdrom
Install the following rpm-files with the following commands
rpm -Uhv --force /cdrom/suse/a1/lilo.rpm for B50 and 43p 150 rpm -Uhv /cdrom/suse/images/k_chrp.rpm for F50 rpm -Uhv /cdrom/suse/images/k_chrps.rpm for POWER3 rpm -Uhv /cdrom/suse/images/k_chrp64.rpm depmod -a
Adjust the file /etc/lilo.conf as described in the manual
Execute lilo
lilo
The Kernel is now installed properly and succesfully copied to the Bootpartiton. The System can be rebooted.
