Dualbooting Slackware and Win XP with LiLo


Hi

I've installed Slackware on my box, and I've resently installed XP again, since I'm going to a private netparty, and can't get all my needed games to work with Cedega. I've swapped my drives, so XP wouldn't overwrite my MBR with Lilo.

Now I just only have the little problem that my Lilo has to be set up for using the XP disk. (/dev/hdb1). How do I change lilo.conf, so it gives me the ability to boot my other hd?

Best regards
Rohde

Take a look here to see what to change in your /etc/lilo.conf.

Regards
