I have a need to install a second linux distribution (redhat 5.2)
tomorrow for some stuff. I have suse installed to /dev/hda2 with lilo
in the bootsector as /dev/hda. Redhat will go to /dev/hdb1 which is
already formatted as a linux native partition.
How should I go about installing this partition's kernel and get lilo
to see this second linux distribution? I read the kernel and lilo
howto's but do not see a mention of multiple linux distributions on one
system. I did a test install of slackware tonite and moved the
slackware /vmlinuz to /dev/hda2 as /vmlinuz.slak. This booted slackware
fine with an entry in lilo.conf. What happens on the second
distribution when I compile a new kernel? Do I make dep, make clean,
make zImage as usual? How can I run lilo on the second distribution
and get the zImage to vmlinuz and then get it seen by the lilo that is
at /dev/hda? Do others mount the second hard disk with another distro
in their /etc/fstab or what?
Thanks for any enlightenment.
