Ok, I have Mandrake 8.2, Red Hat 9 and Windoze XP Pro installed, I can't seem to get either lilo or grub to boot red hat. Red hat is installed on a completely different drive than mandrake and windows, I don't know if this is the problem or not... Rh is on /dev/hdb9 and it is an ext3 drive. a screen shot of the error is

It looks like you install lilo from Mandrake!!!
Okay, here is what you need to do... Boot up Mandrake and log in as root. Mount RedHat, /dev/hdb9 on /mnt/redhat or whatever the mount point is. Then, copy both vmlinuz from /mnt/redhat/boot to /boot and rename it to vmlinuz-redhat and /mnt/redhat/boot/initrd to /boot and rename it to initrd-redhat. Remember to rename those two files for RedHat or they will over-write your Mandrake's boot files!!! Then in /etc/lilo.conf, the entry for RedHat should look something like this,image = /boot/vmlinuz-redhat
root = /dev/hdb9
label = redhat
initrd = /boot/initrd-redhat
read-onlySave it and run "lilo" again at the prompt. You should be all set for triple-boot then...
