You may want to check the mail list archives; there has been several discussions of this in the past. Here is couple of discussions on the subject that are not Debian/GNU specific. The second one gives a nice example of how to set up your lilo.conf: http://groups.google.com/groups?q=boot+multiple+linux+distributions&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&selm=6LW35.208561%24MB.3800243%40news6.giganews.com&rnum=1 http://groups.google.com/groups?q=boot+multiple+linux+distributions&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&selm=Pine.LNX.3.91.980622195520.9602A-10%40xgw10.pal.xgw.fi&rnum=3 -- Jerome msg16870/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

Booting 2 Linuxes with LILO
Please, send reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have 2 debians installed on my system but I'm having troubles with having LILO allowing me to boot any of those. I have potato on /dev/hda3. I just erased win on /dev/hda1 :-)) and installed Woody there. Now, Woody's LILO offers me a prompt to boot the old potato, but won't make it: If I try, it will stop at LIL- What is the correct way to have woody's LILO load my potato on /dev/hda3? I'd also love to keep the subchoiches there for different kernels. Thanks. (following is my old potato lilo, before installing woody on /dev/hda1) # /etc/lilo.conf for potato before installing woody on /dev/hda1 lba32 boot=/dev/hda3 root=/dev/hda3 install=/boot/boot.b map=/boot/map delay=20 vga=normal append="apm=on" default=LinuxOLD image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.19pre17-alb1 label=linux1 read-only image=/vmlinuz.old label=LinuxOLD read-only -- -- alberto. -- alberto. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
