Hi.
Is there
any difference in system resource availability if I load Linux from a dos
prompt as oposed to loading Linux right from the Lilo prompt?
Just curious.

AFAIK no, there's no difference.
they both kick out the BIOS and any "real-mode" programs that are running,
the only difference is the method used, LILO uses native code and a few BIOS
vectors, loadlin uses VCPI.

Thanks Jason.
I don't need to boot this way, but once I got it
working I was just curious.
