i am currently running suse 9.1 with a grub bootloader. i have an 80 gb hd. on hda6 is suse. on hda7 i did have vector and was able to boot it fine with grub. i then installed dsl tonight to hda7. for some reason i can't boot dsl with grub. i get an Error 15: file not found
oh my swap is hda5.
during the install i opted not to install lilo. do i need lilo to boot dsl?

are you sure dsl is installed properly. in one of the other distros mount the partition and see if the FS is there :)

You can add a line to your grub bootloader in /boot/grub/grub.conf and it should load it with no problems...however the proper syntax I dont know

-edit- ahhh...found it! http://damnsmalllinux.org/cgi-bin....;t=2578

you do not need lilo, you have grub

where is your dsl kernel.
