Hello,
I am rather new at Linux, so please bear with me. I have used RedHat in the past, and the installation was about as easy as could be. I wanted to tryout Slackware. Here is my problem. I think i got it installed. It will come up to LILO, I can choose the OS, and continue. My problem is, LILO did not find windows on my other harddrive. I had to go into recovery console in XP, use FIXMBR, and then reboot. I can now get into windows, no problem. Slackware, however, is sitting on a partitioned drive, doing nothing. My setup is the primary master drive is all NTFS with XP pro. The 2nd drive (primary slave) is 1/2 FAT32 and 1/2 EXT2. I figure i should probably edit boot.ini to handle the the OS'. Any thoughts?
