i don't clearly understand your problem. what i seem to knew was , u first installed Debian and after it u trying to install windows. total of min 3 partitions - 1 for root,1 for swap , other 7GB for the win. u should not use the 7gb as the c:, my idea is that , u can partition the 7GB whole to one 2gb as c:(FAT32) and other 5 gb for another FAT. install win from scratch, it removes the lilo on mbr. reboot the system and boot using linux CD.(i think its debian). goto shell prompt. mount -t ext2 /dev/dha1 /mnt #copy the win mbr dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hda1/mbr.dos count=1 bs=512 #write mbr with lilo lilo -v reboot and appears lilo add image line in the lilo.conf other=/dev/hda3 loader=/dev/hda1/mbr.dos label=windows root=/dev/hda3 the better option is grub -jijo jose <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
