with the DSL settings in lilo you might need to use a full path for kernel and initrd lines, or it may try to find them on the active partition.  Not sure how it works in Lilo, but i assume it's similar to grub:
Code Sample

title Slackware
   kernel (hd0,0)/boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda1 vga=794 splash=verbose desktop hdc=ide-scsi hdclun=0 showopts
   initrd (hd0,0)/boot/initrd.gz
title Damn Small Linux
   kernel (hd0,3)/boot/isolinux/linux24 root=/dev/hda4 dsl restore=hda3 noicons base vga=791 dma
   initrd (hd0,3)/boot/isolinux/minirt24.gz


In this case hd0,0 is the primary drive, first partition (hda1), and hd0,3 is primary drive, fourth partition (hda4)

Okay!   You guys were very helpful in showing me where to look.

My current setup:

hda1 fat32 Win98
hda2 ext2  DSL
hda3 ext2  Slack

hdb1 swap
hdb2 ext2 /usr/local

The lilo.conf that works looks like this:

Code Sample

boot=/dev/hda
install=/boot/boot-menu.b
prompt
timeout=300
default="DSLinux"
vga=normal
#
map=/boot/map
delay=20
#

image = /boot/linux24
   root = /dev/hda2
   label = "DSLinux"
   read-only

#
image = /mnt/hda3/boot/vmlinuz
   root = /dev/hda3
   label = "Slack"
   read-only

#
other = /dev/hda1
   label = "Win98"
   table = /dev/hda



I installed it with the command:  # lilo

Works great!  Thanks!!!!
