Hai
I have installed win 98 o.s in my system after that i have
installed Red Hat Linux 7.0,there is a problem in dual
booting,by default win98 is being booted, when i insert
bootable linux floppy linux is loaded
My doubt how to overwrite windows MBR and palce the
lilo in MBR.so that it can boot both win98 and Linux.
i should not use floppy to boot linux,clarify my doubt.
Thanx
You need to make sure the lilo software is on your system - most likely is with Redhat. In Redhat, you should be able to simply run (as root) liloconfig.
If not, post back, and I'll be glad to help.
Hello!
You can use "loadlin" so you don't need to install LILO into your MBR. If you want to use LILO anyway, you should find out what disk and what partition your root filesystem "/" is mounted on. You also should know the same information for your Windows partition (i.e. /dev/hda1 or something like that).
Post here the contents of your /etc/lilo.conf file and I will try to help you further!
