Hey people,

I know this might frustrate some people because this sort of thing has been discussed before but I just don't feel it is was covered well enough.

 

Does know how I can edit my lilo.conf to make lilo boot the os (windows 2k) on /dev/hdd?

 

I have been searching the net for hours now and all I can find is people with instructions on how to make the w2k boot loader boot linux.

 

They also say you must install windows on the first partition/hard disk, then install linux.

 

I already have Linux installed on /dev/had, I have my swap on /dev/hdb, my cd-rom is on /dev/hdc and my "messing around" disk is on /dev/hdd.

 

I boot into linux 99.8% of the time so I don't want to boot the w2k boot load to get to linux.

 

I remember seeing something in a lilo.conf a while ago that said something like

other=/dev/hdx

label=win

map-drive=0x80

            to=0x81

map-drive=0x81

            to=0x80

 

I did try this but got an error from lilo (sorry I cant remember what it said and I'm in the middle of reinstalling w2k)

 

All feedback appreciated.
