Here is my partitioning scheme for hda
1-WinXP-NTFS(I know, I know
the evil empire)
2-Gentoo /boot-ext3
3-Swap
4-Extended
5-Slackware /-ext3
6-Gentoo /-XFS
I have grub installed into the mbr for Gentoo. I installed Slackware with lilo in Slack's / partition and its set to auto-boot Slack. My problem seems to be to get grub to pass boot control to lilo. Here's my grub menu.lst:
default 0
timeout 30
splashimage=(hd0,1)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title=Gentoo Linux
root (hd0,1)
kernel /boot/bzImage root=/dev/hda6 hdd=ide-scsi
title=Slackware Linux (Another forum had this solution, it doesn't work)
rootnoverify (hd0,4)
chainloader +1
title=Windows XP
root (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
I'm sure someone out there knows how to do it, so please help!! I 've got my hard drive setup the way I like it, I've reinstalled Gentoo from stage 1 now 5 times in the past month to fix partitioning probs. I just want to be able to boot Slack. Thanks!
