Sorry to dredge this topic up again, but I am still a bit stuck on lilo. I have read and read and read on lilo multiboots for Win/Linux, but I don't need that because there is no windows on my machine. Here is what I have so far:

hda1 Knoppix (bootable)
hda2 Swap
hda3 KnoppMyth
hda5 /cache #For MythTV
hda6 /home

I think it takes some work after installing to be able to choose either Knoppix or MythTV. These steps are probably obvious, but I haven't seen them layed out for a newbie. Here is what I think needs to be done.

After the Knoppix install, lilo is on my mbr. Then I do a manual install of KnoppMyth. Now to make lilo give me the option of booting into either Knoppix or Myth, I know lilo needs to look something like this (i know i should have specifics, but I am on my work computer):

boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map

image=/boot/`knoppix_image'
label=Knoppix
root=/dev/hda1

image=/boot/`myth_image'
label=MythTV
root=/dev/hda3

So, the problem I have been having is getting the MythTV image path to be correct. I can't specify it as /hda3/boot/... or /dev/hda3/boot.... or /mnt/hda3/boot... or anything that would point to where the MythTV image is placed in the install. Is the solution just to copy the image from hda3/boot/ to hda1/boot/ and then the root declaration takes care of boot up the correct system? I am still getting my head around this concept and have had trouble finding examples of lilo.confs that do what I am trying to do (or at least explaining it in enough detail to get me going, which I am guessing is because it is pretty obvious to most).

Thanks for any advice, nrj
