i want to remove my LILO on boot sector
 
Here's the set up.

1. got an EXISTING LILO... VL 5.8 (/dev/hdc3)

2. installed VL6.0 and installed its own lilo on Boot sector (/dev/hdc13)

3. everytime i choose VL6.0 in my existing LILO (/dev/hdc3) it still goes to VL6.0's LILO.. .the question is, how can i remove the VL6.0 so if i choose this on my existing lILO.. it will just boot straight.


VL6.0 LILO :

To be clear: for now he is loading the second lilo from hdc13 after you got the menu from the lilo in hdc3? And this you don't want in the future?

I answered this in your other question:

Otherwise you can boot the Vector kernel directly with

Code:

image = /mnt/hdc13/boot/vmlinuz # path to the Vector Linux kernel
  initrd = /mnt/hdc13/boot/initrd.gz # if initrd is used


That goes in your main lilo.conf.
