grub -> lilo -> mandrake

[Chilly]

This is one for all your assembler coders and binary hackers out there.
I have a test computer here at work which runs one of several linux flavours, all of which use grub, apart from mandrake which uses lilo cos its a ****. Now - I need to know how to get grub to pass over the command to lilo so lilo can boot my mandrake.

grub is on the MBR, and lilo is on the /boot section of the partition mandrake is on (hdc1). I've been trying this chainloader stuff but I'm not getting very far, any help appreciated

Um, why do you need to use lilo at all for the mandrake? Surely just look at the /etc/lilo.conf to see what image files it's looking for, together with any options, and duiplicate that in the grub.conf ? (No, I don't mean just copy and paste obviously, but with sections already in grub.conf for other boots it should bne simple enough to convert).
