There is a utility called bootpart that allows you to put Linux as one of
the options in the NT boot loader.

Two ways for you: Either see my previous reply to Michael Hatzakis
about win95 eating his boot sector, or check out the page to put Linux
into the NTLDR. This doesn't require any third-party programs, either...

I use this bootpart program with NT's bootloader to start LILO off of other
partitions. Works great and it can do other OSes too!

PowerBoot will make it easier, and at $25 is less expensive than

I find the best option for nt and linux is a small dos partition ( say 10
meg ).
Install msdos x.x and then isatll nt. It will use its own boot loader (lilo
). Then boot linux from the dos partition using loadlin.
So you have 2 menus dos/nt and then linux/dos.
It also allows you to use dos

It sounds like a case of the "dualing boot managers". I successfully boot
between NT and Linux using lilo. My solution was to install NT on a
dedicated HDD (hda). After booting successfully into NT I shut down the
system, moved hda to hdb (and configured nt hdd for slave operation)
I am dual booting Windows NT and Linux on my system; I use LOADLIN.
Here's the procedure:
1. If Windows NT was installed on top of DOS, you should see an

2. Boot up Linux with the disk. Mount your hard drive with NT if it
isn't already. Create a directory ca
