    I partitioned my hard drive in such a way that i can
    install 2 OS. The partition goes like this:

    /dev/hda1 - Linux (ext3)- Bootable
    /dev/hda5 - Linux Swap
    /dev/hda3 - Linux (reiserfs)

    /dev/hda1 has Knoppix3.3 (LiveOIO) and /dev/hda3 has
    Knoppix 3.6. I configured /dev/hda3's lilo.conf by
    putting /dev/hda1 in the "other" line. Upon restarting
    lilo, an "Invalid boot signature in /dev/hda1" error
    was displayed. Typing lilo -P -fix does not solve the
    problem either.
    What went wrong? Thanks!
