- I'm looking for recommendations of boot programs so I can boot linux from my
- hard drive. I am aware of shoelace and lilo, but am not aware of the diff-
- erences.
-
- My current configuration consists of one hard drive in two partitions. DOS
- is on the first partition and linux root is on the second. I'm currently
- booting linux 0.97pl2 from floppy, but would like to change that to boot
- from the hard drive.
-
- Opinions anyone?
