As root, edit /etc/lilo.conf and add your other OS's information there.
My (seldom used) Windows partition information in my lilo.conf is the
following:
other=/dev/hda2
label="windows"
table=/dev/hda
After you finish editing the file, run the following from the command line:
lilo -v
Hope for the best and reboot. That should get you going...

Subject: [expert] Lost other OS when installing Mandrake
When I installed Mandrake on my hard drive, I resized my other Linux
partition to make room and installed in the available free space.
However, as the install was apparently done in 'novice' mode, I did not
have the opportunity to set the other partition as bootable in LILO.
What is the easiest way to modify LILO so that I have the option of
booting either OS at startup. Mandrake currently occupies hda5-7 and
the other OS hda2-3 (swap and /).
Thanks.
