    Anyone have luck using LILO (placed in MBR) to boot NT? If so, how?

    yup,
    ive never used NT at home before,
    but ive seen it done.
    try installing NTloader to the first sector of NT partition, and then installing LILO in MBR..
    when you select boot NT in lilo, it should "forward" you to NTloader's menu.

    yea works perfectly..

    ok install nt, get rh and install it when it asks where you wanna put it put it to the mbr, then just change your lilo.conf to point to dos first, if thats what you load and then it`ll load nt loader after it goes past the timeout smile.gif. simple.
