Hi, the BIOS of my PC is able to boot from the second HD which is called D by the BIOS and /dev/hdc by Linux. I'd like to use /dev/hdc2 as my root partition and I want to install LiLo on this second HD, booting from it. I don't want to install LiLo on the first HD. Reading LiLo's documentation, I can't find a reason why this shouldn't work (because of the particular BIOS support), but in fact it doesn't. Booting hangs after displaying 'LI'. I already tried to enter the correct disk geometries but it makes no difference. I tried to install LiLo to /dev/hdc and /dev/hdc2, but this doesn't make a difference either.
System is installed from the official hamm disks. What can I do to successfully set up LiLo as described above? Or is it really impossible? Thank you, Ulf
