Sorry, Jean-Louis, but you can use LILO to load NT. I'm doing it now on my
machine at work. I first installed NT on the machine, then I installed
Mandrake 6.1, also on hda. I made no changes in lilo.conf, so "dos" boots
to NT, a minor deception.
The NT loader program (ntldr) is a real mode program, same as msdos.sys.
