Mr_Mischif Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 I'm trying to dual-boot FreeBSD and Zenwalk Linux on two different drives, only LILO doesn't recognize the FreeBSD Drive, and the FreeBSD boot manager isn't recognizing Zenwalk. What do I do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparda Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Configure LILO to chain boot and point it at the other hard drive. Only I woldn't count on it booting since it sounds like you changed the driver possistions when you installed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Mischif Posted November 12, 2006 Author Share Posted November 12, 2006 I know somebody has to have had a working dual-boot Linux and FreeBSD system on this board before?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Mischif Posted November 12, 2006 Author Share Posted November 12, 2006 I can currently boot the FreeBSD partition, but all I get is 9s when trying to booth the Zenwalk partition. However, I am not above reinstalling it all if it comes to it, I just want to get it up before the end of today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
