lilo problems
I've had debian 2.0 running on my machine for a while now, but I finally
decided it
was time to load up windows so I could play some games. :) I went out
and bought
a new hard drive, and I want to boot windows off of it.
I've tried several lilo configurations, but I can't seem to make my
windows partition
boot.
Here's my system setup:
/dev/hda1 is my linux root partition (the rest of hda has linux stuff on
it too)
/dev/hdb1 is my windows drive, it's formatted FAT32 and's been sys'd.
Here's my lilo.conf file:
boot=/dev/hda1
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=40
root=/dev/hda1
image=/zImage
append="ether=5,0x300,eth0 ether=4,0x240,eth1 mem=128M"
label=Linux.custom
read-only
image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
read-only
other=/dev/hdb1
label=win
table=/dev/hda
when I boot my machine and try to launch windows, the system says:
LILO boot: win
loading win
and just sits there.
Anybody know what I'm doing wrong/what I can do to fix it? I've been
reading the
lilo docs, but nothing I've tried has worked so far.
