Hosed my system. Knoppix won't fix it.

[Joel Hammer]

It seemed that even as root, I couldn't do things easily from a virtual
console. I was really nonplussed at the problem of lilo not being able to access
/dev/hda after chroot.

I wanted to then alter the lilo.conf that comes with knoppix, hoping I could
change it to what I needed to boot my system. But, I couldn't edit
/etc/lilo.conf, it was a read only system. I suppose that was on the cdrom,
but, I just don't know.

In any event, knoppix wouldn't let me run lilo properly to fix my boot
problem.
