Hi All,

I triple boot (win98/RH7.3/MDK9.1) with   /boot of RH  in /dev/hda8
and / in /dev/hda9 . LILO(RH with location of MDK indicated in
/etc/lilo.conf)  is at present in MBR.

I thought I will give a try booting linux using loadlin.

I created a directory loadlin in C: , copied all the files from /boot
into this directory.

Made a batch file linux.bat with the following line
c:\loadlin\loadlin.exe c:\loadlin\vmlinuz  root=/dev/hda8 ro

Booted into pure DOS mode and ran linux.bat. It booted and halted with
an error message : No INIT found , Try passing INIT=  to kernel.
At this message machine stopped with scroll lock and caps lock lights
flashing.

I thought I will try this before trying to modify config.sys and
autoexec.bat as per the Howtodo put up by USM Bish.

Is this happening because LILO is in MBR and I am trying to boot thru
loadlin?

Pl help
