I need the capability of running both RH3 & RH4.

I have separate root partitions for each.

I am running *headless* & would like a technique of
selecting which root partition will be used on boot.

Is there some better way than editing /etc/lilo.conf?

Didn't I read that there is some way of specifying
the choice to either lilo or shutdown?  Could someone
please post an example command?

Thanks!
Roger
