<div>For a long time I have dual-booted Windows 2000 with Mandrake (now Mandriva) linux - since 7.2 actually. I had been using Mandriva 2006 for a while, and decided to upgrade to 2007. The es1371 sound module is not included, so my sound card doesn't work. 3rdparty modules aren't included, so I can't recompile my ltmodem drivers. I feel like going back to 2006!

<div>Anyway, I installed Ubuntu 6.0.6 from a magazine DVD onto a spare partition (/dev/hdb7 mounted as /ubuntu in Mandriva). As it installed, it installed grub as the boot loader. Mandriva uses graphical lilo as a boot loader, and I set up Windows as my default OS, so that the wife can use the PC. Grub over-wrote that so that Ubuntu, not Windows was the default. Not knowing how to change this, I went in to Mandriva, reinstalled lilo, and hey presto, Windows is now my default. But I have now lost access to boot into Ubuntu!

<div>My Ubuntu vmlinuz and initrd files are still there on /ubuntu, but how do I boot into them? What do I put into my lilo.conf?</div>
