It does not really make any differance which system installed lilo, the secret is mounting all your disks/partitions where "lilo" can reach them all in one go, you can define any partition "in use or not" as long as it is mounted. An example; dos = hda1 redhat = hda5 mandrake = hdc1 slackware = hdd1 You boot with mandrake, you then create some extra dirs' mkdir /hda5 mkdir /hdc1 mkdir /hdd1 mount -t ext2 /dev/hda5 /hda5 mount -t ext2 /dev/hdd1 /hdd1 Edit /etc/lilo and reflect the above image = image-redhat label = redhat root = /hda5/boot/image-redhat read-only same idea for slack. run lilo with -t to check that all is ok, when all is ok /sbin/lilo reboot Another way is to copy all bootable images into one /boot dir and edit lilo.conf accordingly. -- Regards Richard [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.zeelandnet.nl/pa3gcu/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
