New install

When I boot with just the TV connected, it immediately prompts me for a rows and columns selection. Even if I wait out the 30 second timeout it states, it still sits at the prompt until I select something.

How can I automatically pass my preferred setting at boot to avoid this problem and let the system reboot without interaction?

Thanks.

-Jeff

PS - I searched the forms and looked at /etc/lilo.conf but haven't figured it out yet...

you've already gone through the install process or this is on boot from the cd?

Try changing the first line of your /etc/lilo.conf to:

Code:
vga=normal


Make sure you rerun lilo after making the change.
