LILO: Multiple drives (SCSI and IDE) LINUX and Windows
Most of what I have here has come from the LILO documentation.
I have a IDE drive that is booting with linux. My goal is to have lilo
boot both windows and linux with it.
The linux drive is IDE the other two are SCSI.
I boot into windows and it will freak out for some reason and never go
into windows. I do an fdisk and it shows the SCSI (which is /dev/sda
under linux) to be on disk 1. The IDE drive to be on disk 2 (/dev/hda)
and the second SCSI (/dev/sdb) to be the third disk.
If I turn the IDE drive in the cmos and it will work fine.
I am trying to set this up for my father so I can get him into using
linux instead of M$ Windows.
I used this configuration to boot
boot=/dev/hda
root=/dev/hda1
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=20
image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
read-only
image=/vmlinuz.old
label=linux.old
read-only
other = /dev/sda1
table = /dev/sda
label = win
map-drive = 0x80
to = 0x81
map-drive = 0x81
to = 0x80
loader=/boot/chain.b
If any one has a clue please help I have tried many other things but
this is the only one that lets me even get to the point of booting off
the windows disk.
Thanks
