How to make HDD bootable?



Hi All !!

Help me , please.

Now I'm trying to install Linux RH 4 on new machin- with
SCSI HD.  Installation was successful, but
my PC do not want to boot from HD - it print on screen :
<<LI 80 80 80 80 ..... >> and so on, and it trying to
read fd0. When I insert floppy meanwhile , the PC hangs up. But if
I trying to boot from floppy - everything OK

I had  partitioned disk by cylinder, and sda1 is marked as active
(it is marked "*" in partitions list )
lilo.conf is:

     boot=/dev/sda
     linear
     map=/boot/map
     install=/boot/boot.b
     prompt
     timeout=5
     image=/boot/vmlinuz
               label=linux
               root=/dev/sda1
               read-only


Does anyone has some ideas ?

Best regards,
 Igor                          mailto:pixel nts nnov ru
