I have always found that if you boot from the linux installation DVD and go to 'boot installed OS' then it leaves the install manager and boots straight into windows. Where do you specify the option to boot to linux?? -----Original Message----- From: zentara [mailto:zentara@zentara.net] Sent: 17 February 2003 15:56 To: suse-linux-e@suse.com Subject: Re: [SLE] Cohabiting with Windoze On Mon, 17 Feb 2003 14:44:29 +0200 evan@exclusivebooks.com (Evan Morris) wrote:

Whoops.
Now the machine boots straight into Windoze without even asking what I
want
to boot. How do I get it to ask me at startup? Do I have to re-install SuSE? LILO?
Please help.
No problem. Just use the bootable cd to "boot an installed system", and tell it to boot your linux system, then edit /etc/lilo.conf to add a windows partition, then run /sbin/lilo. image = /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20- root = /dev/hd6 label = linux restricted other = /dev/hda2 label = windows table = /dev/hda password = gatescrap -- use Perl; #powerful programmable prestidigitation -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
