How to config lilo with 2 linux os
How to config lilo with 2 linux os
i have fedora4 and now i install slackware 10.2 now i want to config lilo in slackware for fedore4 boot option in lilo. |
You will need to have a boot-loader installed in fedoras / partition, or
have slacks lilo installed in slacks root and make fedoras grub point at that as a "foreign OS" (like it would have for Windows). The thing is that the two distros don't share a /boot partition (I assume that you didn't partition the machine like that - if you did the whole setup may be a different story). Cheers, Tink |

calm down
mitesh.ever calm down, tinksters right we kinda need to no your partition layout before we can help, it's only so our advice doesn't mess up your whole setup
firstly, let's start with how many harddrives you have, then boot to slackware, start konsole and type 'cfdisk' this will show you your partition layout, then we can suggest a viable way to dual-boot your machine |
okay buddies i'll tell u the partition scheme i have.
i have one HD 80 GB and have 6 partion listed below 10 gb ext3 primary bootable slackware 10 gb ext3 fedora swap comman 19 gb LVM created by fedora installation rest free space reserved for windows ... right now have linux only. is it okay ... ? |

Its not at all okay. You should have specified the partition scheme using the command #fdisk -l (may be you not knowing this at this stage) anyways..... read this article to dual boot your machine. come back to us if you still face some problem. regards |
