[newbie] PROBLEM WITH DUAL BOOT
I installed mandrake 8.0 on my second HD which is the secondary slave device in my system. I already have Win98 on primary master HD. In order to make linux come up in boot, I changed the setup to boot from secondary slave. Lilo shows all the boot options including windows but when I choose it, just a text starting windows appears and it hangs. Linux boot doesn't have any problem. in my lilo.conf file for the windows part I have hde and hde1 as the drive names and this seems to point to the right windows HD becuase the reported size is correct.

Re: [newbie] PROBLEM WITH DUAL BOOT
If your windows is on your first hard drive that is hda and then your Linux drive should be hdb. You should change hde to hda and then it would probrbly work. --- Majid Raissi-Dehkordi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I installed mandrake 8.0 on my second HD which is the secondary slave device in my system.
