don't know about your XP problem, but I imagine lilo or grub would work fine.
as for editing lilo, you just open /etc/lilo.conf in an editor and edit away.. you could try: mcedit /etc/lilo.conf or pico /etc/lilo.conf you could even use vi, but unless you know it, don't even try. just remember that to update lilo afterwards, type: lilo at the prompt and it will tell you of any syntax errors and write the changes to the mbr. good luck. rgds Frank -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Robert L Sprowls Sent: Saturday, 15 December 2001 12:42 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [newbie] Edit lilo I could use some help with two problems: 1.) How do I edit lilo.conf? I can find it in a console, but how do I open it and edit or change it? And, 2.) Is there an inherent problem with using a boo loader such as Lilo with Windows XP. Would it be better to use a boot floppy with my other operating system being XP? Thanks, Bob Sprowls
