I saw an answer to this a while back. I need to do it myself sometime, so I saved the message:
---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Tue, 17 Jun 1997 13:31:06 +0100 From: Nuno Filipe Rocha Candido <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Some time ago, I had Debian and Slackware (Slack on hda4 and Debian on hdb2). My approach for dual boot, for example in Debian was: /etc/lilo.conf: boot=/dev/hda compact install=/boot/boot.b map=/boot/map vga=normal delay=20 # ZIP drive settings append = "aha152x=0x140,11,7,1" # DOS bootable partition other = /dev/hda1 label = win95 table = /dev/hda # DOS bootable partition config ends # Linux bootable partition config begins # Debian latest kernel image=/vmlinuz root=/dev/hdb2 label = Debian read-only image=/mnt/slack/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda4 label = Slack read-only This means i have slackware mounted in /mnt/slack, and you have to do the same in slackware. -------- end forwarded message ------------ HTH, Brandon ----- Brandon Mitchell E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/7877/home.html "We all know Linux is great...it does infinite loops in 5 seconds." --Linus Torvalds -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
