weird lilo problem



i have encountered an odd lilo problem.

i have a scsi HD (linux) and an IDE HD (win2k).

i configure lilo, run lilo, and it reports no errors.

reboot, and lilo hangs.

unplug IDE drive, run lilo again, and it reports no errors.

plug IDE drive back in, and lilo boots linux normally.  in fact, i can even mount the IDE drive and read form it.

so basically, i just have to unplug my ide drive each time i run lilo to keep things working.

in the bios i can select to boot from scsi or IDE first, which is how i switch from linux to win2k.

this seems like a rather odd bug, and it is frustrating because i would like to be able to boot win2k from the lilo prompt (currently i cant, because the idea drive must be disconnected when i run lilo).

any ideas?
