That's not my experience.
My experience is that you need to manually add a Linux line to boot.ini
in order to get the extra option (which is, in my opinion) the most
convinient way.
To do that, install LILO on the partition boot record, and seek out a
util called "bootparam".
I would like to have another confirmation, on top of Stav's, regarding
the autodetect. My experience is contradictionary to that described.
