tternes - I have a similar set to yours. Multiple hard drives with 3+ operating systems. What I found that works best for me is to have LILO install on the MBR boot sector of my primary drive. It's scary, if you make a mistake, that's all she wrote,,,believe me..I just made a "Big" mistake today. I was installing RH-7 Server edition, and it does things abit different (im sorry to say) than RH-7 Delux Edition. More and more though, (if i could talk the wife into it :-) ) Im using Linux more than the Win-Junk. KDE has came along way toward me shifting over completely. With the addition of Star-Office, I really don't have a reson the keep flopping back and forth between Win-Junk and Linux. If your a gamer, I guess Linux isn't the way to go really. Anyway, no need to drag this out, just wanted t let you know I have LILO controlling all my OS's, and until I do something "Stupid" (Like I did Today) all works very well.
Ohhh bye the way...My Win-Junk OS's are on one drive (Master 18gig Western Digital 10Krpm) and Linux in on the second (Slave - Piece of junk 12gig Bigfoot TX)...
Good Luck
