Yep. The disk I boot from is the one that Mandrake's setup has you make
during the install....think it's a rescue disk. When the machine boots with
it, it says hit enter to load linux or type rescue. Don't know how to start
Linux any other way. I don't start Windoze automatically when I start up, I
go right to the dos prompt. So without the linux floppy in, I go right to a
dos prompt as if I were going to type win to start windoze.
Anyway, here's the lilo.conf:
boot = /dev/sdb5
delay = 150
timeout = 150
prompt
message = /boot/message
default = linux
vga = normal
root = /dev/sdb6
read-only
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
keytable=/boot/us.klt
image = /boot/vmlinuz
label = linux
initrd = /boot/initrd.img
other = /dev/hda1
label = windows
table=/dev/hda
other = /dev/hdc1
label = windows2
table=/dev/hdc
map-drive=0x80
to=0x81
map-drive=0x81
to=0x80
other = /dev/sda1
label = windows3
table=/dev/sda
map-drive=0x80

map-drive=0x81

other = /dev/fd0
