Re: win98 dual boot

It would greatly help if you posted your lilo.conf file. You'll need something like this:


image=/blah - for linux boot.

other=/dev/hdb1
    label=windoze
    table=/dev/hdb
    map-drive = 0x80
    to = 0x81
    map-drive = 0x81
    to = 0x80

the map-drive option is needed when separate disks are used...
