RH Linux boot from 2nd drive

1998-05-12 Thread Keith von Borstel
Help again... I have Win95 running on 850 MB C drive. I have a second 850 MB drive I want RH Linux on. I installed Linux on the second drive. When I set LILO to the MBR, no boot. So I set LILO to the load from drive 2. Everything was fine but I can't boot to Linux. What next? Thanks to all...
