i had the nt bootloader thing booting linux once, by copying the dos entry
in boot.ini (or whatever file it is) and pointing it at a copy of the normal
linux (lilo) boot sector:

 install lilo onto a partition (eg: hda2), not the MBR

 dd if=/dev/hda2 of=/mnt/dosc/linux.bin bs=512 count=1

i think i only needed the first 512 bytes, you might want to copy 1k or so.
