[lug] LILO Solved

[RADKE JOSHUA PAUL]

After getting home yesterday, I had a chance to look through the docs
again, and I'm not sure if it helped, but I did get it working.  Thanks to
Wayde Allen for some great tips.

It appears that (at least for my purposes) LILO can not be installed on
/dev/hdb, even when the BIOS is told to boot that drive.  This remains a
lingering question, but is this a limitation of LILO or the BIOS's way of
booting?

In the end, my lilo.conf file was changed such that:
boot = /dev/hdb
	became
boot = /dev/hda

That was it.  If anybody has any insight about using the bios to boot
other drives, I'd love to hear them.

Actually, I don't know if it really worked, since I haven't booted windows
since I got an easily accessible Linux *grin*.
