General Support - multiple hard drive boot

Titel: multiple hard drive boot
I have kanotix on master drive and everything works great. I've installed a different linux distro on my second drive.

I use the second drive to test other solutions out there and to learn new things.

Here is my problem: kanotix is grub for boot loader and the second drive has lilo. Unfortunately, it has to use lilo.

Is there a way to be able to select at boot time either kanotix or other without changing bootloaders? If so, can someone point me to 'how to'.

thanks

How about putting some extra lines in grub like this:
Code:
title    Second install
root (hd0,1)
chainloader +1
boot


hint:
hd(0,0) = hda1 or sda1
hd(0,1) = hda2 or sda2
hd(1,0) = hdb1 or sdb1
hd(1,1) = hdb2, etc
