Okay maybe I did not make clear. I am currently running both Xandros
Business 2.5 Linux and XP on a laptop. I have partitioned the drive for
another distro of linux (Fedora 2). My problem is that last time I
tried to triple boot I was only able to see Fedora and XP. My ultimate
choice is to have :
Fedora 2
Xandros 2.5
XP
In that order. I believe that xandros installs Lilo. I also read that
Fedora defaults to Grub, but can use Lilo also.
My question is how to do this? I will be more than glad to email my lilo
conf file and any other data required.
I would really appreciate any assistance in this matter.
Thank you
