Re: [Plug] Dual boot, lilo problem.

I thought if you were using NT it was better to use the NT loader to load
linux? I just remember reading that before. You needed to copy some file
from you linux partition to your nt by using a floppy. and then do a dos
fdisk /mbr and add in some line to the nt loader pointing at that file...
I think it was in a HOWTO somewhere...
