I use NT 4.0 and Debian 1.2, abnd I boot from the NT Loader ... It works like a charm ... He has directions for Linux, as well as, DOS ... Thanx.

Re: [LILO / NT Bootmanager] - correction
A correction to my previous post: >/dev/hda1 - win95 (for games, also contains NT boot loader) >/dev/hda3 - linux (set to active, lilo is installed here - not the mbr) >/dev/hsa1 - NT 4.0 /dev/sda1 - NT 4.0 (referenced in boot.ini) whoops!

From the lilo prompt I type 'win' if I want to start NT loader. This is set up in lilo.conf as type 'other' and just points to /dev/hda. This fires up the NT bootloader which presents me with the menu from boot.ini on /dev/hda1 (or C: from windows point of view), I then pick which windows I want and way it goes. Note: lilo is not installed on the mbr. I don't think this works if it is. Mail me back if you need to see my lilo.conf and boot.ini and I will mail them to you.

[LILO / NT Bootmanager]
Hello, I have a few q's about booting: 1)I have NT4.0 on my pc (sorry to say, but I need it...), and I would like to be able to boot both of my OS'es from a single bootmanager. I haven't found any docs or faqs about whether or not LILO or bootmanager/NT support eachother, only OS/2. Is there anyone who could tell my how to boot from /dev/hda to my NT partition /dev/hda3 as well as my Linux drive, /dev/hdb ?? (My swap is on /dev/hdb5) Thanx. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
