I'm running linux-pro 5.4 and cannot get a lilo floppy to boot on the fourth drive, which is the SCSI drive on the machine. I have to boot with a slackware lilo disk that contains a kernel version 2.0.0 so the modules don't match. it is compiled including aha152x. I don't really want to boot fron the IDE drives that contain microsoft OS's for fear of having to spend time fixing it. Any way to boot a fourth drive (SCSI) from a Red Hat lilo boot disk?
