Edit lilo (..found in /etc) to direct the computer to the Winbloze
partition. For example:
boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.9-27mdk
label=linux
root=/dev/hda8
read-only
other=/dev/hda1
lanel=win
table=/dev/hda
In ythis example, when you turn your computer on and the word LILO: appears
you have fifty seconds to choose between linux and win or it automatically
boots linux. To choose windows, type win at the LILO: prompt and lilo will
boot winbloze for you. The first image is the default boot. this can be
switched to windows by switching the linux info with the windoze info. This
way your computer will automatically boot Windoze.
After editing your lilo.conf file (..agai, found in /etc), run /sbin/lilo
from the prompt in the linux terminal. This will automatically write your
lilo.conf configuration to LILO.
See ya,
