i would ideally like to dual boot puppy and damn small linux on a finely aged p2 266 256mb ram. i tried the puppy install to hard drive option but after the grub menu i get a black screen, but my swap partition works (YAY!)

i googled for installation instructions for dsl and it gives a way to do it with lilo, and i dont feel confident enough to substitute anything so if someone can hold me hand and tell me what to do step by step it would be appriciated.

also how do i automatically select the windows manager of xfbdev in dsl?

AFAIK grub is default with a frugal install.
