You can use grub to boot your system, in fact lilo or grub is about the only way to boot your system, short of setting up a chain loading in the Windows XP loader, or using another boot loader, but just simply reinstalling the XP boot-loader will make your Linux partition (or hard drive as the case may be) virtually unusable unless you have the boot sector that you use to boot Linux safely tucked away on a floppy (or another for of media readable by windows) but if you still choose to use the Window XP boot-loader for loading Linux, here is a link to a site on how to set it up.... http://www.plugnpray.co.uk/linux/lilo-nt/1.html i know it's on lilo, but i don't even know if it's possible to do using grub, i don't use grub, in-fact i can't stand grub, but i hope this helps you, i know it helped me when i chose to use the Window XP boot loader

-------------- If you have received a letter inviting you to speak at the dedication of a new cat hospital, and you hate cats, your reply, declining the invitation, does not necessarily have to cover the full range of your emotions. You must make it clear that you will not attend, but you do not have to let fly at cats. The writer of the letter asked a civil question; attack cats, then, only if you can do so with good humor, good taste, and in such a way that your answer will be courteous as well as responsive. Since you are out of sympathy with cats, you may quite properly give this as a reason for not appearing at the dedication ceremonies of a cat hospital. But bear in mind that your opinion of cats was not sought, only your services as a speaker. Try to keep things straight. -- Strunk and White, "The Elements of Style" -------------- Nicholas Hockey ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Encrypted E-Mail preferred |
