I'm sure someone here can help me with this. Say I have two Linux
kernels. One, is version 2.4.19 and the other is 2.4.18. In lilo.conf,
I've labeled 2.4.19 as "linux" and 2.4.18 as "linux-old". Those are now
the options that show up in the LILO graphical menu at boot time.

My question: Is there anyway to prevent a normal user from booting into
"linux-old"? I want to keep it on the menu as an option but I really
only want it to be used if there is some problem booting into 2.4.19.
Can a password be put on "linux-old" so that only someone who knows it
can boot into it? If not, is there anyway to accomplish what I want?

Thanks,
Rick
