You'll have to run lilo from the RedHat partition. And also copy the Mandrake
kernel image to the root directory of RedHat (or boot-dir if you name it so in
lilo.conf).  I can send you my lilo.conf if you don't manage to do what you
intend to. I am running RedHat 6.2 from /dev/hda2 and Mandrake from /dev/hda7
and Windows from /dev/hda1.  
Have anybody other solutions?
