Here's what I know (I haven't tested this, but I think it will work okay):
1: Boot into Linux.
2: Edit /etc/lilo.conf such that the line "boot=" is set to
"boot=/dev/hda1" (change hda1 to your linux partition).
3: Run /sbin/lilo.
4: Run the command
dd if=/dev/hda1 of=/root/BOOTSECT.LIN
Where you substitute your linux partition for hda1.
5: Put BOOTSECT.LIN somewhere where NT can see it- on a FAT16
partition or a floppy disk.
6: Boot to NT.
7: Copy the BOOTSECT.LIN file to C:\.
8: Edit C:\BOOT.INI (you'll have to `attrib -r -s -h c:\boot.ini`
first.)
9: Add a section like so:
C:\BOOTSECT.LIN="Linux Mandrake 6.0"
10: Save & Exit. Run `attrib +s +r +h c:\boot.ini`
You should be done. If things don't work out, you can "rescue" your NT
install using the rescue disk set (run rdisk if you haven't got one).
