I looked there but it was not there. I guess I need to install it but don't
know how. I have tried reading the manual for lilo but I guess I didn't
understand it. If I understood it correctly I needed to type in
/sbin/lilo -i to install it. I tried it but it just told me what perimeters
I was able to use with it. Thank you for the help.

have a dual boot machine. I don't know where to go to make these changes. I
have some info to make this change. I guess I need to know where to make the
change for lilo to do its thing.. I have gone looking for lilo but haven't
found it. Oh kay I admit it I haven't looked really hard. Is this where I
would tell it to boot from the hard drive and if not where would I change
that? Another thing is I would like to know where I might be able to get the
Linux cookbook. Thank you fore the help.
