LILO.. Where ???

["Karthik K H" <karthik_kh@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,
  I am back. Now that I got the X windows Systems up & running at last ,I wonder where to put the LILO.
 During installation , the install program failed to write it in the MBR or the other choice.

  I have Win95 , Win NT 4.0 server & also RH Linux 5.2. on the same machine.
    Where actually should the LILO be written & would it conflict with the WINNT OS Loader ?? ( though I feel there should not be a conflict technically )

    Also, I think I am running on 640 X 480 resolution. I did not want to experiment much with it because after nearly 3 days of struggle I got the X up & running . How would one change the resolution to , say , 800 X 600 16 Bits.

    By the way , some people really reacted a bit too much to my earlier mail , taking me for a guy from the WINTEL world. Well , I have been a developer now 
for more than 3 yrs , 90% of which I have spent on Sun Solaris ( Just Love it!!) & Ultra Sparc Workstations. My only point was that the installation of Linux must be more automated rather than it expecting users to specify disk partitions sizes , 
Horz & Vert frequencies ( For any CARD, not just SiS 6326 ).


cheers,
