 Sure. Here it is. Also, I changed my description of "98" to "crap", but it
still shows up on the bootloader as "98":


prompt
timeout=50
default=linux
boot/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
message/boot/message
lba32

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.7-10
	label=linux
	initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.7-10.img
	read-only
	root=/dev/hda5
	append="hdd=ide-scsi"

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.7-test
	label=linux
	initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.7-test.img
	read-only
	root=/dev/hda5
	append="hdd=ide-scsi"

other=/dev/hda1
	optional
	label=crap

Here is my partition structure:

Device    Boot  System
/dev/hda1  *	Win95 FAT32
/dev/hda2	Linux
/dev/hda3	Linux swap
/dev/hda4	Win95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/hda5	Linux

I installed lilo at boot and told it to load it on the MBR

The first few lines of lilo.conf should tell you.

Can you post your lilo.conf?
