HD Install :: Installing lilo to mbr using live-cd



Hi

I have w98 already in hda1, an empty linux partitition hda2 and a swap space.

Is it possible to install lilo when booting with the live-cd? I mean, does dsl allow etc/lilo.conf to be edited when using the live-cd feature?

Then, provided i have a valid lilo.conf file, i just have to execute lilo as root to install it, is that right?

thanks

Yes.
But the hd-install script generate the /etc/lilo.conf file and install Lilo to MBR automatically. The DSL hard disk installation can be Full or Frugal. I recommend you the Frugal Install. Here documentation:Frugal Howto
