I just installed linux mandrake on a pc with with 98 to dual boot. My windows partition has an A,C,D,E,F and G drive. After I loaded Linux I got LILO at boot up and can go fine into Linux but windows 98 just hangs. So I went into Lilo and edited the windows boot command line in grub and was able to unhide the windwos partition, but only the C drive comes up, not the otehr extended partitions in windows. Then when I restart Lilo does not come up, only grub and I have to then unhide the linux partition, restart and then LILO comes up to start linux. I need Lilo to fully recognize both Linux and Windwos partitions. What is going on.
I do need to boot to either of them from Lilo. I can see the windows partition in Linux. But I need to be able to dual boot without going through all the grub command lines.
