So the installation goes just fine but when I try to install Lilo at the end to anything(MBR, Block, Floppy) It just tells me there has been an error trying to install Lilo? I have tryed installing PCLinuxOS(Which I am running right now off this very drive), and OpenSuSe with no Problems any ideas?

Slackware installer isn't very clever and often fails to implement Lilo.

You can take the matter into your own hand by restore LIo yourself. Seem to work for me in Slackware 10 and Slackware 11. Slackware isn't the only one having problem with implementing Lilo during installation.

Task B3 of the last link in my signature refers.

dvd may be bad - have you tried redownloading an reburning?
are you using grub or lilo to boot PCLinuxOS?

just some ideas

I am using grub in PCLinuxOS and also I tryed to boot linux from that floppy I made during the installation and it cant find slack ? and doesnt boot the os but it goes through the installation fine.

Q: If you've already got grub installed, why install Lilo?

Can you boot Slack from grub command prompt?

add an entry to grub/menu.lst ?

The Task B3 in the last link of my signature is based on using any Live CD to rescue Lilo of an unbootable Linux.

If you have a working Linux then just use it to rescue the unbootable Linux using the the same commands.

Basically you mount the Slackware partition in PCLinuxOS, change root to it so that you are physically inside Slackware and use its own command "lilo -b /dev/hda" to restore Lilo iknto the MBR of hda. Once inside Slackware you can actually run "liloconfig" again which is the program the installer used to implement Lilo. The "lilo -b /dev/hda" will report to you any error if Lilo cannot be restored.

Once your Slackware boots you should find Grub will be overwritten by Lilo. That is alright. All you need to do is to choose which boot loader to take over the MBR and make all the other distros "chainloadable" by this boot loader.

If you want PCLinuxOS booted by Slackware's Lilo then use SLackware to rescue PCLInuxOS by restoring Grub inside PCLinuxOS root partition. Say if PCLinuxOS root partition is in /dev/hda6 then Lilo can boot it if you add these two lines in Slackware /etc/lilo.conf
Consult Task D in the last link of my siganture of making a Linux chainloadable.

If you already have GRUB installed why not simply use that? You can easily add an entry for your Slack install into the grub menu.lst and boot with that.

saikee's suggestion will work unless you have a faulty installation medium and lilo was corrupted and/or didn't copy over properly during the installation. If that's the case you won't be able to use that as lilo itself is corrupted (unlikely but possible).

There's nothing wrong with using GRUB.

There is nothing wrong using Grub and I am possibly more comfortable with Grub than with Lilo.

However to get Lilo working one must give it a chance to boot from the MBR and so it seems logical to continue with Lilo to boot other systems.

I think a Linux user can make either Lilo of Grub to work any way he/she wants and there is no harm in trying both boot loaders out. The only way to learn Linux is do not be afraid of it, especially if one has Grub to fall back to.
