yes, LILO will do this. My /etc/lilo.conf file boots both, and will
supposedly boot the most recently booted, though it doesn't seem to be
doing so at the moment. But the problem of sharing /home and /usr/src
with bsd unable to access logical ext2fs partitions, and linux being
unable to write to ufs partitions, has pretty much stopped my
experimenting. Here's the file to do it:
boot=/dev/hda
root=/dev/hda7
# Generated by liloconfig
compact
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=20
image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.1.119-eyry
label=119
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.0.34
label=34
image=/vmlinuz
label = onboot
root=/dev/hda1
other=/dev/hda2
label = dos
table = /dev/hda
other=/dev/hda3
label = bsd
table = /dev/hda
