Booting Linux with lilo
Hi,
I have a dual boot Linux/Win95 system where Linux is a RedHat 5.2 (Win95
is in my system for the sole reason I like to play games from time to
time). The setup look like this:
Device Contents SCSI id
/dev/sda1 Win95 C: lilo 0
/dev/sdb1 / 1
/dev/sdb2 /home 1
/dev/sdb3 /root 1
/dev/sdc1 Win95 D: 6
/dev/sdd2 /usr 10
/dev/sdd3 /opt 10
/dev/sde1 /usr/local 11
/dev/sde2 /proj 11
I would like to add a SCSI Wide drive at SCSI id 8 to install Debian 2.1
that is released soon AND use lilo to boot to that drive. Is it
possible? It would mean that /etc/lilo.conf would look something like
this:
boot=/dev/sda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
vga=6
prompt
timeout=50
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.0.36-0.7
label=l
root=/dev/sdb1
initrd=/boot/initrd-2.0.36-0.7.img
read-only
image=/boot/debian-kernel-2.0.36
label=d
root=/dev/sdd1
initrd=/boot/initrd-2.0.36.img
read-only
other=/dev/sda1
label=w
table=/dev/sda
Any success stories with a similar boot scheme?
/Johan
