Hi I've been following this thread as I have W98 on /dev/hda and Debian on /dev/hdb (Keep them nice and separate, I thought....) and I havn't configured lilo yet, I'm still booting off a floppy.
I was planning to sit down with the LILO manual (recommended reading) sometime and fix it up, but heretical thought occurs: You could get loadlin and put something like this at the beginning of your autoexec.bat: choice c:/ld Enter l for a real OS or d for dross if errorlevel 2 goto dos if errorlevel 1 goto linux :linux echo Loading Linux loadlin <kernel file and boot params here> goto end :dos <rest of your autoexec.bat here> :end What vile things DOS batch files are, I never tried writing one before. It seems to work but I havn't tested the loadlin part as my dual-boot box is at home. The purists will doubtless be reaching for the sick-bags but it might just achieve what you want without endless fiddling about and/or overwriting the MBR on /dev/hda.
