i've just installed lilo on my /dev/hda2 ( extended ) and it worked
perfectly on my computer ... i use it another bootmanager in my MBR to
load lilo ... my lilo.conf has some lines like :-
boot=/dev/hda2
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=30
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label=linux
root=/dev/hda5
read-only
other=/dev/hda1
label=dos
table=/dev/hda
ok .. so here's what i want to do ...
i want to install lilo in my MBR and let lilo boot dos as default ...
i wonder how can i do that ? so , first i tried to get dos as default..
so i tried doing this
image=/dev/hda1
label=dos
table=/dev/hda
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label=linux
root=/dev/hda5
read-only
but when i /sbin/lilo , it said there was syntax error on the
table=/dev/hda line .. so , i tried fiddling around with that line using
/dev/hda1 , etc .. but it still had the error .. so , i removed that
line , and when i /sbin/lilo , it was ok .. the problem was that when
lilo tried to boot dos , it gave an error message ... ( which i'm almost
sure is because it needs the table line )
so , now i've put my lilo.conf to my original settings ... but i'm still
unable to set it as default ... btw , what is the read-only line for ?
