i.e
##########################/etc/lilo.conf###########################
#LILO global section
boot=/dev/hda #mbr of first ide-device
compact
#lba32
install = /boot/boot.b
map = /boot/map
timeout = 100
prompt
# End LILO global section
#
image = /boot/Debian/vmlinuz-2.4.19 # Whereever the db kernel is
root = /dev/hda6 #The Partition where your deb root is
label = DEBIAN-2.4.19
read-only
initrd = /boot/initrd.img-2.4.19 # Only if needed!
vga = 791 # Did you compiled framebuffer
# support in your kernel?
#
image = /boot/ReadHat/vmlinuz-2.4.18 # Whereever the RH-kernel is
root = /dev/hda1 #The partition where your RH-root is
label = RH-2.4.18
read-only
vga = normal # Without framebuffer at vt
##########################/etc/lilo.conf###########################
Try also man lilo.conf. You can also try grub as your bootmanager!
