    Hi.
    I am having a little problem with LILO. I have a machine with Win2000 on the
    first IDE drive and I want install Debian on the other drive, which happens
    to be SCSI. If in /etc/lilo.conf I specify boot=/dev/hda -asking LILO to
    install itself into the MBR, how will I make it aware that Debian kernel
    resides in /dev/sda?
    Meaning the line image=/boot/kernel-2.6 will make LILO think that Debian is
    also in /dev/hda. Has anyone encountered a similar situation?

    Thanks in advance.
