prepared for. I like to use LILO, and LILO will be on the /mbr of the IDE drive pointing one boot to winblows on the same IDE drive and another to Linux on the SCSI drive.. Should I expect any problems with my plan?
nope - just the usual: things don't go as expected ;-)
hmmm, It's good to see that there are other folks mixing sczi and ide:-) When I installed Suse on my system (4 ide drives and 1 sczi drive), the only real problem that I had was that Lilo had to be installed on of the first two drives on the system otherwise it wouldn't read all the files associated with the kernel (the map and all of that). I use OS/2's Boot manager to select which os to run (OS/2, Dos, Linux). Lilo is installed on the first partition of the second ide drive. For some reason, if there is an ide drive on the system, that is also the first drive of the system. Although Linux can boot from any partition, the partition that you boot from must be on one of the first two drives of the system. It was that way when I was playing with RH and it also turned out to be that way with Suse 5.1, (something to do with the kernel?). -- cya l8r Leon McClatchey leonmcclatchey@homemail.com Linux User 78912 (Win95 Box) - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
