[SunHELP] Bad PBR Sig.

I'm not a lilo guru, but let's say you have Win on hda1, Linux root on =
hda3,
the lilo.conf file should look like this  :

boot =3D /dev/hda
timeout =3D 50
prompt
  vga =3D normal
  read-only
map=3D/boot/map
install=3D/boot/boot.b
image =3D /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.5-15
  label =3D l
  root =3D /dev/hda3
other =3D /dev/hda1
  label =3D d
  table=3D/dev/hda


Now, let's say you install Solaris boot on hdc1, you should boot on =
Linux
floppy, add the following lines to lilo.conf, rerun /sbin/lilo,and ... =
pray
:

other =3D /dev/hdc1
  label =3D s
  table=3D/dev/hdc

(not sure of the "table" stuff for Solaris ?)
