Description Kevin - The Alchemist - Sonney 2001-07-03 11:43:11 UTC 
When installing Fairfax B1, I was unable to add additional boot menu items
at setup. The only options available where the auto-detected M$ partition
and the new Red Hat partition. It would have been nice to add an older RH
partition, secondary DOS/M$ parition, etc. 

This had to be done post-install, obviously.

Will this work on a system being upgraded that has multiple lilo.conf
items, or willthose be lost,and the upgrader be required to re-setup their
old boot env by hand?

We will consider this for future releases.

Will be doable for Hampton
