Special Forums Windows & DOS: Issues & Discussions How to add Win2000, Win Me option to Lilo menu? Post 25660 by J.P on Friday 2nd of August 2002 07:56:49 AM

How many disks do you have? Where are the windows partitions
located ? Without these questions answered it's hard to give you an exact answer but the lilo.conf file _might_ look something along these lines:

...
other = /dev/hda2
     label = winme

other = /dev/hdb1
     label = wintwok
     table = /dev/hdb
...

If you're not sure about what partitions you could try:

# fdisk -l /dev/hda
# fdisk -l /dev/hdb

Reading the lilo.conf man page doesn't hurt either Smilie

Regards
J.P

EDIT: Don't forget to run /sbin/lilo after you make any changes to the lilo.conf file.

NAME
keytab-lilo - compile keytables files for use with LILO SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/keytab-lilo [-p R old_code = new_code ] ... [default_layout] kbd_layout DESCRIPTION
keytab-lilo is a program which compiles keytable definitions (in the format specified in keytables(5)) into a format which can be used by lilo(8) to set the keyboard type when booting [using the keytable parameter in /etc/lilo.conf]. kbd_layout should be the name of a map file which specifies the desired keyboard layout. This file may be a gzip(1) compressed map. If no file extension is given, .map.gz is assumed. If the full pathname is not specified, /usr/share/keymaps/ is assumed. Since lilo essentially needs to know the differences between the BIOS keyboard mapping and the one you require, the default_layout file should contain a keytables(5) file for the BIOS default mapping. If no default_layout file is specified, us.map.gz is used. keytab-lilo writes the output translation table as a binary string to standard output, so you should redirect it to a suitable file. lilo has no particular restrictions on the name of keyboard translation files, but the suggested naming convention and location is /boot/map- ping.ktl (where .ktl stands for "Keyboard Table for Lilo"). OPTIONS
-p R old_code = new_code Specifies corrections ("patches") to the mapping obtained from the translation table files. E.g. if pressing the upper case "A" should yield an at sign, -p 65=64 would be used. The -p option can be repeated any number of times. The codes can also be given as hexadecimal or as octal numbers if they are prefixed with 0x or 0, respectively. EXAMPLES
keytab-lilo dvorak >/boot/dvorak.ktl This is the most common form of invocation; it simply compiles the given map file (in this case dvorak) and puts the result in /boot/dvorak.ktl. AUTHOR
Werner Almesberger (almesber@bernina.ethz.ch). Peter Maydell (pmaydell@chiark.greenend.org.uk) wrote this manual page. SEE ALSO
lilo(8), keytables(5), gzip(1) lilo comes with extensive documentation which can be found in /usr/share/doc/lilo-doc/ on Debian-based systems. April 1998 KEYTAB-LILO.PL(8)
