I currently have 2 hard drives and was trying to set up a dual boot
system. The jumpers are propoerly set and the bios recognises them
the 40gb is the master with linux. The 16gb is the windows 98. I was
using the in a removable hard drive tray configuration but decided to
install them both as master and slave.
fdisk -l /dev/hdb
Disk /dev/hdb: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 2055 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hdb1 * 1 2055 16506756 c Win95 FAT32 (LBA)
charlene:/etc#
I read the howto's on the LDP and here is an excerpt from my lilo.conf
# Boot up Linux by default.
#
default=Linux
image=/vmlinuz
append="video=atyfb:mode:1280x1024:font:SUN12x22"
label=Linux
read-only
# restricted
# alias=1
image=/vmlinuz.old
label=LinuxOLD
read-only
optional
# restricted
# alias=2
# If you have another OS on this machine to boot, you can uncomment the
# following lines, changing the device name on the `other' line to
# where your other OS' partition is.
#
other=/dev/hdb
label=Windows98
When the prompt comes up I can boot int Linux and LinuxOld but not
windows 98. It just hangs. Lilo is on the master harddrives MBR.
Is there something I overlooked on the HOWTO's????
