Re: Multi-Boot Problem

Hi Jean-Yves:

   I'm so imporessed by your "Lilo Jump" :))
Can you tell me more details about how you
do it?
   For example:
1. How do you install lilo into /dev/hda1 and
  /dev/hda5 at the same time?
2. Where do you put the configuration file for
  the lilo of /dev/hda5?
3. Can you attach your configuration files for
  lilos in your replying letter?

Thanks so much :)

Jack

HiJack (;->>),

I would suggest you to use loadlin instead of lilo (see /usr/doc/lilo/....)
Otherwise, if you intend to change your partitions, I had no problems with > 1024 cyl lilo BUT using lilo jumps between partitions (/dev/hda1 (inside 1024 limits) lilo was jumping to /dev/hdc5 (Extended partition, inside 1024 limits) wich was jumping to /dev/hdc7 (wich was OUTSIDE 1024 limits from /dev/hdc1, but 
within 1024 cyls from /dev/hdc5 !)
