Loading Windows 2000 NTFS from Lilo
 
When I try to use Lilo to load Windows 2000 nothing happens, it used to work fine with GRUB on Red Hat 7.3. Here is the Windows part of my lilo.conf:

# DOS bootable partition config begins
default=Linux

other = /dev/sda1
label="Windows"
table = /dev/sda
# DOS bootable partition config ends

I am running Slackware 9.1.
Thanks in Advance for any help

"other=/dev/sda1" means that win2k is on the first scsi drive of the first controller. Is that right?

No, Win 2k is on /dev/sdc1. Thanks for your help, I've changed my lilo.conf file

I've changed my lilo.conf and now the Windows part is this:

Code:
# DOS bootable partition config begins
default=Linux

other = /dev/sdc1
        label="Windows"
  table = /dev/sdc
# DOS bootable partition config ends
I've reloaded lilo and rebooted but when I try to load Windows nothing happens...

Thanks in advance

Most linux's can't boot Windows from other than HDA1 or... SDA1 I guess... So you've gotta change some slave and master on ya disks...
