under mandrake i just set up lilo to think the first partition was a regular
old dos partition and the nt boot loader pics up from there. the first
partition is fat not ntfs so i'm not sure if that makes a difference.
this is what the relevant part of lilo.conf reads - generated by mandrakes
lilo config tool.
other=/dev/hda1
label=dos
table=/dev/hda
