It would truly be a matter of properly writting out the /etc/lilo.conf of the first installation; the first installation would write the lilo to the MBR of the first HD; then after you've done all that wonderful jazz and gotten your primary installation up and running, do a second installation on the "second" drive, but choose to NOT write lilo; then make note of the boot partition for the second installation and whatnot, and then write that into the /etc/lilo.conf on the first drive. -- Tue Jul 29 13:40:00 EST 2003 13:40:00 up 15 days, 5:43, 2 users, load average: 0.00, 0.24, 0.51 ----------------------------------------------------------------- | __ __ |kuhn media australia | | /-oo /| |'-. |http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' |stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | ----------------------------------------------------------------- linux user #:267497 linux machine #:194239 * MDK 9.1+ & RH 9 Mandrake Linux Kernel 2.4.21-11mdk Cooker for i586 ----------------------------------------------------------------- * This message was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer * Once the toothpaste is out of the tube, it's hard to get it back in. -- H.R.
