    http://docsrv.sco.com/LateNews/osT.linux_unixware7_short.html

    says;

    4: Edit lilo.conf and add the following lines:
       other=/dev/sda4
            label=uw7
            table=/dev/sda

       For an EIDE hard disk, use the appropriate device such as /dev/hda.

    5: Rerun LILO:
     
       /sbin/lilo

    But I would suggest using grub instead of lilo nowadays:

    Google is $FRIEND
