Hi Stephen, I worked it out. :-) I really did not understand what was required which was why I needed help. It worked when I used rdev on the kernel *and* copied the kernel to be used with the Linux on hdb to /boot on hda. A friend had arrived with two computers with three drives between them

Yes. Below is a copy of a lilo.conf file. If your machine boots successfully you could ignore the disk sections. I use these because my bios can't see drives bigger than 2.1G and drive hdc is 2.5G. Good Luck, Stephen --- boot=/dev/hda delay=150 disk = /dev/hdc sectors = 63 head

Can lilo boot either of two linux installations , one on hda and the other on hdb? If this is possible I would appreciate any guidance. Thanks, Lindsay =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Lindsay Allen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Perth, Western Australia voice +61
