	I had multiple distros and found that I just kept my default
Linux "lilo.conf" file from my initial distro and edited in the
additional Linux distros into the file. Keep a sharp eye out
during the fdisk'n part so you can refer/remember the partitions,
make a boot disk for each distro when prompted, and remember to
read the doc's on LILO. And run /sbin/lilo each time you even
*THINK* of editing that file. :)

	What I share with you worked for me. I come from a long
background of machinery so my procedure may not make the the
current Linux Journal but it definitly works for me. :)
