Hello, In general, you need some defaults, and an entry for each operating system you wish to boot. Perhaps an example is best. Below, you will find my entire "/etc/lilo.conf". You'll have to customize as appropriate. What all this means can be found in the lilo man page. You have a question about a particular entry? Just ask. I had trouble with this at first, and got help on this list. -Dave <wx1g at attbi.com> ### global defaults here... boot=/dev/hda map=/boot/map install=/boot/boot.b compact prompt timeout=1000 message=/boot/message lba32 default=win serial=0,9600N8 ### my first Linux boot image ### It brings up Linux with Speakup, using ### my doubletalk lt. image = /boot/vmlinuz label=litetalk alias = l read-only root=/dev/hda2 append = "speakup_synth=ltlk" ### Linux, Speakup, and my Braillenspeak here... image = /boot/vmlinuz label=bns alias = b read-only root=/dev/hda2 append = "speakup_synth=bns" ### Linux with no speakup or synth loaded... #no speach image = /boot/vmlinuz label=nospeech alias = n read-only append = "speakup_synth=none" root=/dev/hda2 ### My Windows 2000 boot image here... other=/dev/hda1 optional label=win alias =w Jared writes: > Hello once I have redhat installed how do I configure lilo to allow me to > bute betwine the different opperating systems? > > > _______________________________________________ > Speakup mailing list > Speakup at braille.uwo.ca > http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup
