Hi.
I'm trying to setup a pc with two versions of DOS and RH linux 7.0. The
first DOS installed in hda2 and the second on hda3. Linux is installed
on hda1. lilo is installed on the MBR.
The lilo.conf I'm using:
boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
message=/boot/message
linear
default=linux
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.16-22
label=linux
read-only
root=/dev/hda1
other=/dev/hda2
label=Windoze
change
partition=/dev/hda3
deactivate
set=DOS16_big_hidden
partition=/dev/hda2
activate
set=DOS16_big_normal
other=/dev/hda3
label=AutoDOS
change
partition=/dev/hda2
deactivate
set=DOS16_big_hidden
partition=/dev/hda3
activate
set=DOS16_big_normal
When I boot to Linux and Windoze, everthing works fine. When I boot to
AutoDos, hda3 is made active, but the line set=DOS16_big_normal does not
seem to take effect, and hda3 remains hidden. If I used Partition magic
to make hda3 visible, AutoDOS boots fine. If I (as a debug tool) changed
the active of hda3 under AutoDOS to deactivate, hda3 is now not active,
proving that the active and set=DOS16_big_normal inde AutoDOS /dev/hda3
is being executed when I think it should be.
Any help appreciated.
