hi. i have windows nt and msdos on my hard drive partitioned as such:

MS-DOS  |  Windows NT
500 MB    |   3.1 GB

and I want to install linux over ms-dos. BUT on the dos partition there
is a windows nt file which is VITAL and contains the nt boot record
(ms-dos mbr occupies the mbr space)
and if linux toasts it, my computer will cease to work. is there a way
to preserve this file when linux reformats the partition? thanx...
    -Matthew
