If the RedHat install is the only thing on scd1, you don't need a boot
partition. The real need of a boot partition is where the kernel is saved
on a spot that's above 1024 cylinders on the drive. With modern bioses this
usually means above 8GB. If it's below 8GB you don't need a /boot
partition. I don't use one.

Subject: RE: [techtalk] Harddrive problems with Lilo
I did a Google search for the latest version of LILO, here's what I came up
with:
http://freshmeat.net/news/2000/05/11/958088264.html
I have a question about dual booting with LILO. Will this newest version of
LILO allow me to have a dual boot system where NT is _completely_ on scd0
and RH6.2 is _completely_ on scd1, or will I still need to create a /boot
partition for RH on scd0? I'm very new at this (one week), so forgive me if
I'm asking a silly question or just being ignorant. Also, since the new
version is a source .tar.gz can anyone give me advice on compiling? Or will
that be easier than I think?
TIA,
