People needing a LILO-equipped boot/root disk is _so_ common,
I must ask that RedHat (if anyone there is reading this!!!) provide
a "How to Do Stuff Regarding LILO from a Boot Floppy" FAQ
and a disk image of said floppy.  This is apalling--four people in
a week's time?!?!?

Please _do_ something about this.
