I have Linux 0.99p6 running on my system, but at present I can only boot
off floppies. I have tried to boot using Lilo and Bootlin , but both
of them hang after the partition check with the message MINIX magic match
failed EXT-FS magic match failed.

The Linux Partition is in MINIX format on an IDE drive and I have DOS and OS/2 on it aswell. A dos partition
and another MINIX partiotion are mounted at boot time.

Any ideas anyone?

Al.
