My system has WinNT on hda and MDK on hdb. Not until Mandrake 8.2 have I
found these lines put into my lilo.conf:
disk=/dev/hda bios=0x81
disk=/dev/hdb bios=0x80
...
other=/dev/hda1
label=windows
table=/dev/hda
map-drive=0x80
to 0x81
map-drive=0x81
to 0x80
I understand what these bios/drive lines are up to, but why? My system
works just fine without them. Furthermore, since I boot with ntldr in my
MBR (ok, it's a little weird) and lilo in /dev/hdb, the above lines kill
ntldr's ability to boot lilo.
So, each time Mandrake's System Tools creates a new lilo.conf, I have to
remove those lines. No Mandrake before 8.2 did this on this system. What
gives?
