[Sheflug] FreeBSD and Linux.

[Barrie Bremner <xxxxx [at] xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

I know it says *Linux* Users Group on the door, so I'll take flames as
they come :-)

However...this is just about on topic :-)

I've been playing with FreeBSD4.4 on one drive, with Redhat on the
other disk, and I'm having hellish times trying to get LILO to boot to
FreeBSD. It hangs with L? after I enter 'freebsd' at the LILO: prompt.

Here's my lilo.conf:

boot=/dev/hde
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=30
default=linux

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.10
        label=linux
        read-only
        root=/dev/hde5
        append="hdd=ide-scsi"

other=/dev/hdg1
        label=freebsd

This is about as close to anything I found on my trawling around
google and FreeBSD sites.

Anyone got any experience with this sort of thing?

Cheers.

Baz.
