HD Install :: cfdisk boot tag

Hi,

I have partitioned my H/D into 2 parts. The 1st was installed XP and 2nd DSL.

After installing DSL, the default boot OS is DSL now. I tried to use cfdisk to toggle the boot tag to the XP partition. The write function of cfdisk utility complaint "... can not re-read the table...".

Any pointer is appreciated.

Is your dsl linux using llilo or grub?

lilo

Add these lines to your lilo.conf

other=/dev/hda1
label=Windows

I have not tried it and i dont know if it works but, you can always give a try.

lilo.conf is located at /etc if you dont know.

original here.
