Re: Advice re: triple-booting with Knoppix after installing MS Win-98 and Redhat-9.0[fedora]

Yeah you can switch to Lilo from Grub. But I've never done that, I've gone the other way, from LILO to Grub. It shouldn't be a huge issue to do that, there must be some FAQ's on it, but keep a RH boot disk handy if you need to blow away the MBR.

Actually Mark I did use Grub when I installed Redhat

I get the impression that Debian/knoppix uses Lilo...
is that correct?

If so could I `somehow switch from Grub to Lilo in
RH-9.0 or ?

Oooh 56K.  I feel for you.  Check the Knoppix FAQs
about doing an install
(if you haven't already).  My only concern is the
LILO stuff if you are
using GRUB.  Barring that, I see no real issues with
it.
