I've looked (albeit quickly) at the lilo and lilo.conf man pages and
the LILO HOWTO and am not certain exactly how to do this - and don't
want to try for fear of messing things up.

I've got RH 5.2 installed on /dev/hda3 with the entire filesystem on
one partition.

I just installed RH 6.1 on /dev/hdc with:
/boot on /dev/hdc1
/ on /dev/hdc2
/home on /dev/hdc3
/usr/local on /dev/hdc5

Lilo is installed on the MBR of /dev/hda and I'm currently loading RH
6.1 with a boot disk.

I'd like to create a lilo.conf file and store it on the MBR of
/dev/hda and have options for RH 5.2 on /dev/hda3 and RH 6.1 on
/dev/hdc (with /boot on hdc1 and / on hdc2).

Can anyone help me out with this?

Here's my current lilo.conf used with RH5.2.  Yes, I still want to
keep win95 in there, but I can figure that out - I just can't figure
out for certain how to tell lilo to have options on two different
disks and how to specify that / and /boot are on different partitions.

boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b

        root=/dev/hda3
        read-only

        label=linux-2.2.13
        root=/dev/hda3
        read-only
other=/dev/hda1
        label=win95
        table=/dev/hda

TIA,
