I am dual-booting using Lilo to boot either Win 2000 Pro or Linux RH7. My LILO screen says "Linux and DOS". Can I edit this? If so, how?

Thanks

sure!
edit the file /etc/lilo.conf
where you see 'linux' change this to 'good_os' and for dos put in 'bad_os' or whatever name you wish to name them. when done run lilo as root. use any editor you wish, i think redhat7 uses pico by default, but kedit, gnome edit and others should work fine.

I don't use Linux because I hate Windows (which I do) I use Linux because I like it.
