Hi, 

A strange thing happened to me when I tried to change the default of
Lilo from linux to dos. I put in lilo.conf "dos" the first and "linux"
second and it had no effect. So I changed back lilo.conf.

At the advice of someone named "Frontal" I did:

Lilo -D dos

and it worked. Now I have Lilo with dos as default.

I was courious and I looked in lilo.conf. It is unchanged, linux is
first and dos second. And is still booting dos as default. I don't know
why all strange things are happening to me. When I installed linux the
setup asked if I want Lilo in hda or in hda3(my linux partition) and I
answered in hda3. Is this of any importance ?

By the way, would it be possible more than 2 OS in lilo.conf ?


Best regards
