Re: Newbie questions
you can use xbase-configure, xf86config, or XF86Setup to reconfig your X.
As far as lilo goes you need to add a lilo paragraph for your msdos
partition...mine looks something like this.
other = /dev/hda1
label = win98
table = /dev/hda
then rerun lilo to install the new label.
When this is done you can hold the shift key on boot to get lilo to stop
and wait for you to do something then type in the label name of the ms-dos
partition. Or you can hit tab or something to get a list.
Hope this helps
