I got a copy of RedHat 7 for Christmas and was getting ready to install it on a new machine (the other machine had 6.2). After installing Win98 I started the red hat install, but when I booted up after the install, the machine booted straight into Win98. No LILO prompt. I tried installing again. Same thing. Any ideas?

Did you make a boot disk?
If so use it...

edit /etc/lilo.conf
(take a look at the documentation, btw)
(I use the edit function of Midnight Commander...basic no brainer...like dos EDIT)

run lilo

that should be it unless you have some older
hardware.....
