You can install the LILO boot loader in one of two places: either into the master boot record (MBR) of the hard disk you are installing to or into the boot sector of the partition you are installing to.
With LILO installed in the MBR of your first hard disk, it will take over the boot process of your computer completely. If you have other operating systems installed on the computer, you will need to add them to the LILO configuration file (/etc/lilo.conf) in ttylinux to be able to boot into them.
With LILO installed in the boot sector of the target partition or in the MBR of a hard disk other than the first one in your computer, you will need to have another boot loader installed in the MBR of your first hard disk. You have to add the MBR or boot sector where the ttylinux LILO is installed to the setup of that boot loader in order to be able to boot ttylinux.
