I use Boot Manager to boot Linux from the second harddisk, you have to
remember to use OS/2 fdisk to create the Linux partitions, or else they
will be trashed. After that, you install Lilo in the boot sector of the
root partition (or any other unused primary partition boot sector) and
add it to Boot Manager's manual. On my system, Linux boots up in less
than 3 seconds, now that's what I call fast booting.
