Hello,
If you want to boot a windows install just add the following:
other = /dev/hda1
label = win
To the bottom of the lilo.conf file.
That should do the trick ...

Hello Michael Gale,
The triple boot I want to set up is two linux operating systems and one
windows 95 system.
What you suggested might work for three linux systems, but since the
third system is windows 95 and not a linux system, what should I put for
the third boot choice of windows 95?
Regards,
Michael Walters

First the post to the form may take a while depending on how busy the
site is and if the posts are moderated. It could take a few hours for
it to be posted.
Second the bookmart problem earlier ...sounds like you have bookmarked
a page that no longer exist.
Now for the multiple boot problem ... I am really not sure what
"SimplyMEPIS-3.3.1" is but I will assume for now if is like any other
Linux distro.
So here is what you should do, feel free to alter the settings below:
For the example - 40GB hard drive:
/dev/hda1 - swap
Install distro 1 on /dev/hda2
Install distro 2 on /dev/hda3
Install distro 3 on /dev/hda4
Now setup lilo on all the all the distro's so you will not screw it up
if you run the lilo command:
image="/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.22"
vga=794
label="linux1"
#append="nomce hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi"
root="/dev/hda2"
image="/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.22"
vga=794
label="linux2"
#append="nomce hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi"
root="/dev/hda3"
image="/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.22"
vga=794
label="linux3"
#append="nomce hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi"
root="/dev/hda4"

Hello All,
I tried twice to submit a query to mepis.org about installing
SimplyMEPIS-3.3.1 with multiple boots and found that twice when I
clicked the submit button the message was not submitted.
Once I was in libranet 3.0 firefox and once I was in the Live
SimplyMEPIS-3.3.1 CD firefox when I tried to submit the query.
I registered with mepis.org and even successfully changed my password
before trying to submit these queries.
I skimmed 15 pages of the Mepis forum and could not find what I wanted.
There are at least 17 pages to search through and there are also the
mepislovers forum posts to go through too.
But I would just like to install SimplyMEPIS-3.3.1 with a multiple boot.
I am going to try to get my money back from Libranet on Monday. If I do
get my money back I will be doing a dual boot, but if I do not get my
money back I will be doing a triple boot, namely SimplyMEPIS-3.3.1,
Libranet 3.0, and windows 95.
regards,
Michael
