I originally had on SUSE 9.1 installed on my HD. When I added MDK 10.1,
I chose not to install the bootloader as I was going to make an entry in
the SUSE grub.conf to boot MDK 10.1. For some reason, MDK overwrote the
MBR anyway and now I have lilo with MDK options and I'd like to add SUSE
as an option (currently on hda1). It's been a while since I played with
lilo. Do I need to first make an entry in /etc/fstab for SUSE
on /dev/hda1 and *then* add an entry in lilo.conf for SUSE?
This is what I changed in the MDK lilo.conf file:
default="linux"
boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
keytable=/boot/us.klt
prompt
nowarn
timeout=100
message=/boot/message
menu-scheme=wb:bw:wb:bw
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label="linux"
root=/dev/hda8
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="devfs=mount acpi=ht resume=/dev/hda7 splash=silent"
vga=788
read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label="linux-nonfb"
root=/dev/hda8
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="devfs=mount acpi=ht resume=/dev/hda7"
read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label="failsafe"
root=/dev/hda8
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="failsafe acpi=ht resume=/dev/hda7 devfs=nomount"
read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.5-25cvs20040728163444-default
label=SUSE
root=/dev/hda1
read-only
but the issue is that there's no such thing
as /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.5-25cvs20040728163444-default as far as MDK is
concerned.
I'm brain-farting here. Could someone lend a hand? Here's my
current /etc/fstab file as well:
/dev/hda8 / reiserfs notail 1 1
none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0
/dev/hda9 /home reiserfs notail 1 2
/dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom auto
umask=0,user,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec 0 0
/dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom2 auto
umask=0,user,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec 0 0
none /mnt/floppy supermount
dev=/dev/fd0,fs=ext2:vfat,--,umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-1,sync,codepage=850 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/hda7 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/hda8 and /dev/hda9 are MDK / and /home respectively. SUSE
has /dev/hda1, /dev/hda5, and /dev/hda6 as /, /usr, and /home
respectively.
Thanks.
