Hiya peoples..
im running redhat on a 6.5 gig harddrive that has acouple of partitions
hda1  /boot
hda5  /cdr (was for burning)
hda7 /
and the swap

however I decided to install turbo linux in the hda5 partition to see
what it is like...
i did that and had the install place the boot on the first swector of
the partition.
i edited the lilo conf or redhat but i cant get a menu happening in TAB
or when i type it ...
how can i access this partition??

      initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.12.20.img

      root=/dev/hda7

      label=linuxT
      root=/dev/hda5
