Your file /etc/lilo.conf should look like this, given that drive D is on
the first IDE controller (most systems don't have a second IDE controller,
so it probably is).
boot=/dev/hdb1
root=/dev/hdb1
compact
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=20
image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
read-only
If drive D is on the second IDE controller, that should probably be hdc1,
not hdb1.
Edit your lilo.conf and then run LILO. Then try telling System Commander
to boot the first partition on drive D. If that doesn't work, try this:
dd if=/boot/mbr.b of=/dev/hdb bs=444 count=1
That will copy the boot block to your D drive, where it won't work but may
provide the required signature.
Thanks
