Yes, it was my first setup. hda (primary IDE channel 1) contained a windows, hdb (secondary IDE channel 1) contained MDK8.1. Lilo installs in the MBR of hda and boots both os without problems.

I don't remember the details since it was more than a year ago, but since it was my first linux installation and worked immediately, I assume it was straightforward.

I have heard that Linux can boot from a drive in the secondary IDE channel. Is this true? And a boot manager will still allow me to manage booting from both disks?
