I installed Red Hat 9 on hda1 and choose not to use the red hat bootloader. I made a boot disk instead. Now I want to edit lilo.conf, which is the mandrake bootloader on hda6, to add Red Hat to the options and have it boot from there instead of the floppy. Please help with this entry. Here is what my lilo.conf looks like:
default="WindowsXP"
boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
keytable=/boot/us.klt
prompt
nowarn
#timeout=100
message=/boot/message
menu-scheme=wb:bw:wb:bw
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label="Mandrake"
root=/dev/hda4
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="devfs=nomount acpi=ht splash=silent"
vga=788
read-only
image=/mnt/hda6/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8.1-kanotix-5
label="Kanotix"
root=/dev/hda6
# initrd=/mnt/hda6/boot/initrd.img
vga=791
append="ramdisk_size=100000 lang=us apm=power-off hda=scsi hdb=scsi hdc=scsi hdd=scsi hde=scsi hdf=scsi hdg=scsi hdh=scsi nomce alsa noinitrd.img"
read-only
other=/dev/hda2
label="WindowsXP"
table=/dev/hda
other=/boot/vmlinuz
label="RedHat"
#image=/mnt/hda1/boot/vmlinuz
# label="RedHat"
# root=/dev/hda1
# initrd=/mnt/hda1/boot/initrd.img
# vga=788
# append="initrd=initrd.img hdc=ide-scsi"
Right now it boots to a screen that says booting from diskette is no longer supported. But it can boot into red hat from the floppy. I commented out some things that didn't work, said file or directory does not exist when I ran lilo. Please help with this entry.
