Weird, but what is wrong with using your LS120 in RedHat?
Windows has never completely liked the LS120, for instance on my 
machine it sometimes recognised it a Floppy disk drive, removable 
drive or a non-existant drive, and that was all in 3 reboots. That was 
before I gave Windows the boot.

A dual boot, hmm....they should still be separate anyway. Where 
have you installed lilo? MBR? that is a no no for a start, 98 
ALWAYS install to the MBR and takes over what is there on every 
boot up. Or at least corrupts it anyway.

Post what the lilo.conf is anyway, I'll see if there is anything to kick 
around with
