Thats cos of the LILO binary is inside the SRV (!)
So without SRV addon no LILO binary.. I think the lilo you found is only a
link?! (am not 100% sure...)
A easy way (if you have less mem...) is to copy the lilo to a disk. (only
lilo and maybe mke2fs...)
After that start muLinux from the 1st disk.
$ mkdir /usr/srv
$ mkdir /usr/srv/bin
$ mount /dev/fd0 /usr/srv/bin
(so you don't need to copy to ram... hehehe)
Start the clone (should work) I think i does that in some earlier versions
of mu... anytime...
If not let me know... I'll wive that a try at home... but later...
Ciao...
