Many thanks to everybody who responded to my question.
Here is my original question:
> I have pentium200 with 2 IDE disks.
> It was DOS installed on the first of them and Linux on
> the second .
> Now I installed Solaris 2.5.1 on the second disk instead
> of Linux. When the system goes up I get LILO.
> If I choose DOS it works but if I choose Linux it crashes.
>
> I want to make the system to be bootable from both DOS
> and Solaris OS. I'm afraid to run installboot, because it can cause
> DOS to be unreachable. The only way to boot up Solaris now
> is booting from boot diskette.

Here is the answer:
This will work just fine but the system will not be able to boot Solaris
without
using the install/boot floppies. It's possible also to boot Solaris with
using
third-party boot manager such as 'System Commander' from V
Communications.
This type of package will allow to boot from DOS drive or from Solaris
on second
hard drive.
Notice:
The Solaris OS allows to boot up to four (4) operating
systems on the same hard drive. But unfortunately I have the OS on the
different drivers.
