1. You need to install Lilo in the master boot partition.
2. Use a boot floppy (You made on right?  If not, see step #5.) to start
yourself into linux.
3. You are going to have to edit the lilo.conf file (I believe that it is
located in /boot or /etc)
4. After you have made the neccessary entries into the lilo.conf (boot
information for both operating
    systems, see the Caldera web site for specific line entries or better
yet buy a Linux book), type /sbin/lilo
    which should set you straight.
5. Barring that, scrap Caldera, get RedHat 6.0 (With that shiny new Linux
Unleashed book you're gonna buy)
    and run the install CD that will have you up and running in an hour or
so.
