Re: [newbie] LILO configuration
There are a couple of things you can do, first you can try using KLILO, its a KDE form of changing the lilo configuation. Or you could use DRAKBOOT, a file in DRAKCONF, that will configure LILO too, if you need more help, email me. ~Lance

[newbie] Lilo configuration
Hi, there! I´d like to know how to change the conf. of Lilo. I mean how I could do to set Windows 98 as the preferable O.S. if it could be done. Now, I can´t use Linux because it doesn´t seem to like my modem I can´t surf internet, I have a 3com U.S. Robotics 56k Faxmodem, maybe is set as a winmodem, I don´t have any idea, it looks just if it didn´t exist. thank you

Re: [newbie] Lilo configuration
Does LILO recognise your Windows 98 installation at all? If so, you can edit the following file: /etc/lilo.conf It may look something similar to: boot=/dev/hda map=/boot/map install=/boot/boot.b prompt timeout=50 linear default=linux vga=ask image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.16-3 label=linux initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.16-3.img read-only root=/dev/hda5 other=/dev/hda1 label=dos table=/dev/hda You can change the "dos" label to anything you'd like *without spaces*. For example: label=Win98 Then you need to change the default=linux To: default=Win98 If your /etc/lilo.conf file does not have the "ohter" section, try adding it. When you are done editing the file, save it. At the command line, type: /sbin/lilo [enter] you should see something like. added linux added Win98* The asterisk (*) means it's the deafult OS. --Greg - Original Message - From: "Francisco Javier Rivas Martin" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, there!

Re: [newbie] Lilo configuration
I´d like to know how to change the conf. of Lilo. I mean how I could do to set Windows 98 as the preferable O.S. if it could be Load lilo.conf into your favorite editor and change the line that says default=linux to use the label (probably windows) used for your windows boot. You can change these labels to be whatever you want but the default must match one of them. Now, I can´t use Linux because it doesn´t seem to like my modem I can´t surf internet, I have a 3com U.S. Robotics 56k Faxmodem, maybe is set as a winmodem, I don´t have any idea, it looks just if it didn´t exist. Typically a winmodem reports busy rather than being "nonexistent." Maybe you need to check the port you think it's using. Cheers --- Larry
