> Now what do you guys say I try? Ryan,
I don't know enough about Linux to suggest a rescue procedure. But I have a sugestion to use instead of Lilo. I have a floppy disk to boot for Linux (yes I know ancient technology and slow to boot). There are some real advantages. 1. I don't have to play with any of the methods to attempt to get NT and Linux to co-exist. 2. (This is the big one). I frequently have to move between Linux and NT (I do Java development on Linux but currently do my Database entity modelling on NT). By using the floppy I can decide which OS to boot into next as soon as I start the shutdown of either OS. eg I am limping along in NT and decide to use Linux. So I insert the floppy, tell NT to Shutdown and Restart - go away, make coffee and return to Linux. eg 2 I am whizzing in linux, decide I need some instability in my life so I eject the floppy, press Ctl+Alt+Backspace to exist X then Ctrl+Alt+Delete to shutdown and restart, go make coffee or 2 and come back to NT login.
