Re: dual boot with lilo Linux on slave drive
- Can lilo installed on MBR of the 2nd HD handle dual boot at boot time? I don't see any reason it coultn'd be; can you force the machine to boot from the second disk ? but you can handle dual boots even with lilo in MBR of 1st hdd... -- Matus fantomas Uhlar, sysadmin at NEXTRA, Slovakia; IRCNET admin of *.sk [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ ; http://www.nextra.sk/ Save the whales.

It really seems best to have LILO on the first drive - I made a /boot partition on hda, and edited etc/lilo.conf to reflect that. The Linux root partition is on the second drive, but the kernel image is in /boot, on the first drive. You also have to make /boot an active (bootable) partition with Linux fdisk, or some other utility. And run /sbin/lilo from root to update your configuration. Torrey
