as root:
make a backup copy of /etc/lilo.conf by doing:
cp /etc/lilo.conf /etc/lilo.conf.backup
just in case.
edit lilo.conf and you can add your windows boot then save lilo.conf and run:
lilo
it should output something like:
Added linux *
Added linux-nonfb
Added failsafe
Added windows
Added floppy
just as a guideline, my windows entry looks like this:
other=/dev/hda1
label="windows"
table=/dev/hda
