Re: Put Debian on Slave?
Sure you can. Just install LILO on the master boot record of the master.
In lilo.conf, just specify the root drive of Debian as follows.
image=/boot/kernel-2.3.40
label = 2-1
root = /dev/hdd
But, just need to run lilo from Corel Linux. And have the Debian slave
drive mounted somewhere in corel linux. In my case, I have my /boot
mounted from /dev/hda5. In your case, just type "mount /<mounting point>
/dev/hdd" before editing lilo.conf
/dev/hdd may also be /dev/hdb.
