Can anyone help me with the necessary lilo.conf setup in order to
Dual boot my PC.
Currently it has a Debian 3 which is the dominant system on hda1 with Lilo on the mbr and Win 2000 on hdb1.
I installed Windows FIRST and Debian second so as to prevent Windows overwriting things.
When installing Debian, the installer said that it could see Windows and has added:-
Windows IS installed as an NTFS however I am running a Debian Flavour which can read NTFS --- is this ok?
other=/dev/hdb1
label="WinNT(hdb1)"
When I start the system Lilo begins and presents the options. Debian (mbr) starts fine, but Windows just sits there and does nothing.
This is my lilo.conf file --- any ideas ...
