okies, here's the deal.

i have 2 hard disks. one has WinXP and Mandrake 10.0 on it. the other is a tiny 2.1 GB that i want to put Damn Small Linux on.

can lilo boot images from different HDs? if so, how can i make it happen?

if not, what will?

if this has been discussed before, i didn't find it when i searched, so please link me to the thread.

Umm yes it can...just put /dev/hdd or w/e as the destination for the DamnSmall Linux in the lilo setup file. Maybe Mandrake has a nifty GUI to do this (I know SuSE does). But yes you can.
