When I boot with LILO from a floppy disk, having set it up from BL2
with lines for that and BL3 and DOS, on a large hard drive, pointing lilo at boot.b and kernel in the first partition (DOS), it boots automatically to BL2 and does not give me a choice. If I put in the line
delay=100 it waits a bit longer but still boots to BL2.
I remarked out default=BL2 and it still goes to BL2.
DOS is listed first.
What did I do wrong?
delay=50 default=BL2
This is supposed to give me a prompt and wait 5 sec then load BL2.
I need to boot without loadlin on one computer or the keyboard won't work in linux.
I could probably make a different floppy disk for each O/S (run lilo from BL3 to boot to BL3 with that floppy disk) but that is a nuisance.
