I have installed xp onto my machine, i have a 200 gig hd... I used Knoppix to create a 20 gig partition that i was going to use for Linux. I created a 1 gig swap drive and the rest went to the linux system. I installed slack, and then configured lilo, i also had it boot to linux.

When i thought all was said and done, I restarted... Hoping to see the lilo dual boot screen, but it booted to xp. I put my slack cd back in and made sure i unstarred the xp partition so it would boot to lilo... XP automatically put the star back... Is there anyway to take control of XP so that i can choose slack or XP? Im assuming im going to have to edit the boot config file for XP...

Thanks,
Derek

Did you install lilo to the mbr?

Umm, How would i do that..? sorry im a bit new to it. I installed lilo to my linux system partition, and my XP partition so they would both show on the lilo boot screen
