6. Boot configuration
  


Tweaking LILO page 4 of 6


Now, your lilo.conf should look like this:


boot=/dev/hda 
delay=20 
vga=normal 
root=/dev/hda1 
read-only 
 
image=/vmlinuz 
label=linux 

image=/vmlinuz
label=linux

Now, change the first "image=" line to read image=/vmlinuz2" Next, change the second "label=" line to read label=oldlinux. Also, make sure there is a "delay=20" line near the top of the file -- if not, add one. If there is, make sure the number is at least twenty.
