Yo-
I have to use NT for work sometimes so I boot into it when I have to print
Office97 stuff and to use Photoshop 5. Anyways, here is my lilo.conf,
maybe it will help you.
######/etc/lilo.conf
boot=/dev/hda
root=/dev/hda2
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
delay=20
image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
read-only
other=/dev/hda1
label=winnt
table=/dev/hda
Hope that helps.
