Well, you could boot, full time, from floppy.
However, my suggestion was to boot from floppy, edit your lilo.conf
file to point at the right spots on your hard drives, and then run
lilo.

The problem is that Windows will only boot from a primary partition on
the first hard drive. Windows does not play well with other OSs - it
expectes to be the only OS on the drive. You can try the modifications
I made to your lilo.conf. I have not tried them with Windows 95/98, but

Just set your windows HD as master, linux on your slave, and LILO will boot
both.

The quick and easy answer is to make your Windows HD the master, and
your linux HD as the slave...boot from a boot disk, at that point,
edit your lilo.conf file, run "lilo" and try again.

Hi All
I've got a dual boot machine, nt4.0 and rh6.1 (Via Mandrake 6.5 package). I
have system commander also.
If I select Linux under sys commander I get the first two letters of Lilo, "li"
and that's all folks.
If I boot from floppy, linux works great although it boots slow.

I was trying to use linuxconf to configure my lilo loader to append some command-lines

So I went into fdisk and checked the partition table. It showed it as type 83 linux.

The way you've set up (boot using NT loader), you need to put lilo on
