You probably have NTFS on your NT4 system partition which LM would use to
install Lilo. I mean your C drive
should be a fat16 partition (that you could use for W95 or W98) then D drive
can use NT4 with NTFS if you want,
and last LM and Lilo will be happy to coexist with these two.
Use PQ magic to create 3 partitions from the beginning of
of your HD:
fisrt your Fat
2nd your swap and linux (LM won't boot if too far, >1024 cylinder)
3rd your NT4 partition.
Good Luck. Let me if it works for you.
