I had the same problem with LILO when I installed Linux on my machine.  The only way I 
could recover the MBR on my NT disk IIRC was to create a boot floppy using my old 
Win3.1 laptop and use this to recreate the MBR on the NT machine.  After this 
experience I would recommend creating a boot floppy in preference to LILO.  Still, in 
the end it's down to preference.

        Really?  I did that for the longest time when I was dual booting
Linux and Windows NT 4.0 SP4 on my laptop.  Now I use VMWare and I don't
dual boot anything, but I recall this working on several systems.
