You mean, at which point during booting you can decide to boot WinXX instead? From lilo.conf: # You can put a customized boot message up if you like. If you use # `prompt', and this computer may need to reboot unattended, you # must specify a `timeout', or it will sit there forever waiting # for a keypress. `single-key' goes with the `alias' lines in the # `image' configurations below. eg: You can press `1' to boot # `Linux', `2' to boot `LinuxOLD', if you uncomment the `alias'. # # message=/boot/bootmess.txt # prompt # single-key # delay=100 # timeout=100 Just uncommenct the "prompt" and set a timout. Then after running lilo and rebooting you should see a LILO: prompt where you can type win or whatever you called it. Phil
