Dual boot - W2K and Mandrake 7.1
Ive got a feeling this is going to be the first of many so thanks in advance!
I've a 30GB IBM drive. I partitioned off 15GB and installed w2K then installed Mandrake 7.1 in the remaining free space. Now when the system starts the boot loader does not give me the option to boot to the Windows partition. I've a suspicion this may be something to do with the 1024Mb limit but is there a way round it? Heres my lilo.conf: boot=/dev/hda map=/boot/map install=/boot/boot.b default=linux keytable=/boot/uk.klt lba32 prompt timeout=50 message=/boot/message menu-scheme=wb:bw:wb:bw image=/boot/vmlinuz-smp label=linux root=/dev/hda5 append=" hdc=ide-scsi" vga=788 read-only image=/boot/vmlinuz label=linux-up root=/dev/hda5 append=" hdc=ide-scsi" read-only image=/boot/vmlinuz label=failsafe root=/dev/hda5 append=" hdc=ide-scsi failsafe" read-only other=/dev/fd0 label=floppy unsafe Having fun trying to get to grips with linux though! |
Try adding this to the end of the lilo.conf file.
other=/dev/hda1 label=w2k Don't forget to run /sbin/lilo after making the changes. |
Thanks Linuxcool - that did the trick!
