I have got some problem with GRUB Bootloader... it doesn't recognize my DSL partition.

On my HDD are 3 OS and one SWAP:
Partition 1 Windows NTFS (Windows 2000)
Partition 2 Extended3 (DSL)
Partition 3 Extended3 (Ubuntu)
Swap

I have gone into GRUB console and typed
Code Sample
root (hd0,**pressingTAB**

Possible partitions are:
Partition num: 0, Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x7
Partition num: 1, Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0xb
Partition num: 2, Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83
Partition num: 3, Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x82

I think thats the problem.

I have also tried installing DSL onto EXT2 Partition --> same problem.

With lilo my Ubuntu doesn't start :/.

I've just re-read your post. Does your machine boot from Grub or Lilo and what partition is it on?
