Hi Linuxers,
I've installed lilo on my two-disk SCSI system on which i also run
(ran) OS/2 and occasionally DOS. LILO has installed itself on the
Master Boot Record and is unable to boot OS/2. It can, however,
occasionally boot OS/2's Boot Manager, but that seems to have
crashed, why I dont know.
How do I boot OS/2 from LILO? OS/2 and Linux Swap is on disk 1
and Linux fs and DOS is on disk 2. I dunno where the MBR is,
presumably on disk 1, but DOS FDISK says the disk is not
startable and furthermore Linux FDISK and DOS FDISK swap
the drives such that /dev/sda == disk2 and /dev/sdb == disk2.
What's going on?
