<para>If you are a Linux user, however, and prefer that
|
||||||
|
<application>LILO</application> control the boot process, you can
|
||||||
|
edit the <filename>/etc/lilo.conf</filename> file for FreeBSD, or
|
||||||
|
select <option>Leave The Master Boot Record Untouched</option>
|
||||||
|
during the FreeBSD installation process. If you have installed the
|
||||||
|
the FreeBSD boot manager, you can boot back into Linux and modify the
|
||||||
|
<application>LILO</application> configuration file
|
||||||
|
<filename>/etc/lilo.conf</filename> and add the following
|
||||||
|
option:</para>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<programlisting>other=/dev/hdXY
|
||||||
|
table=/dev/hdb
|
||||||
|
loader=/boot/chain.b
|
||||||
|
label=FreeBSD</programlisting>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<para>which will permit the booting of FreeBSD and Linux via
|
||||||
|
<application>LILO</application>. In our example, we use
|
||||||
|
<replaceable>XY</replaceable> to determine drive number and
|
||||||
|
partition. If you are using a <acronym>SCSI</acronym> drive, you
|
||||||
|
will want to change <replaceable>/dev/hdXY</replaceable> to read
|
||||||
|
something similar to <replaceable>/dev/sdXY</replaceable>, which
|
||||||
|
again uses the <replaceable>XY</replaceable> syntax. The
|
||||||
|
<option>loader=/boot/chain.b</option> can be omitted if you have
|
||||||
|
both operating systems on the same drive. You can now run
|
||||||
|
<command>/sbin/lilo -v</command> to commit your new changes to the
|
||||||
|
system, this should be verified with screen messages.</para>
