hi, thanks for the info but don't you specify the kernel to boot? and what is the alias for? On Sat, 5 Aug 2000, Alexander [iso-8859-1] K�hn wrote:

Hi Noah, lilo works fine for me, here a little extract from my lilo.conf:

image = /boot/vmlinuz label = linux root = /dev/hda8 alias =l

other = /dev/hda2 label = OpenBSD alias = o table =/dev/hda

other = /dev/hda4 label = FreeBSD alias = f table =/dev/hda

You could otherwise try it with GRUB, but that's a bit tricky to setup, Regards, Nagilum.

hi everyone, I am having a problem configuring lilo to dual boot SuSE and freebsd can anyone give me pointers. I have already done it successfully with windows and OS/2 but freebsd seems to be a problem. Or is there another boot loader I could use?
