Assuming that you are using SATA drives, that Slackware is installed on (Linux 
designations)
/dev/sda2, Windows is on /dev/sda1 and OpenSolaris is on /dev/sdb1:

You should already have this entry in your Slackware /etc/lilo.conf

other = /dev/sda1
  label = Windows

Just add this:

other = /dev/sdb1
  label = OpenSolaris

Save the edit.  Now execute /sbin/lilo and you should see lilo adding the 
selections.

Reboot and select OpenSolaris.  You should get a grub prompt.  If you do -not- 
get
the grub prompt post back here and I will provide the recipe for installing 
OpenSolaris
grub to the OpenSolaris disk partition.
