Norman,
You don't need to edit boot.ini LILO will boot XP for you. Did you
install XP first or second? If Linux went in last, your boot loader
install should have given you a lilo entry for both XP and Linux. If
this isn't the case (sounds like it), then you can either add whatever
lilo
you have to put /boot on /dev/hda, I put my in the first 150mb of my hard
disk and then I created a Partition for Windows XP about 5gb and then the
rest is for Linux
/
/home
/var
/swap
/tmp
etc... and then I use LILO as my boot manager. Also make sure you use
FDISK to make the 150mb

Hi,
I am trying to dual boot Linux Mandrake 8.2 with XP. XP runs on the primary
disk, and LM 8.2 runs on the secondary disk. They are both on the IDE slot
1. I put LILO on hdb. Would someone please tell me how I can edit boot.ini
to make it boot for both OS?
Regards,
Norman
