I did it on my first dual boot, when I kept reading things like "do not install grub into the mbr or you won't get back into windows!!" I have no idea where I found instructions, but if I recall, you just dd if=/boot of=/osshare/linux.bin, and stick a reference to linux.bin in your boot.ini. Or something to that effect. There are also Gentoo-specific instructions at the wiki: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Dual_Boot_from_Windows_Bootloader_(NTLDR)_and_why . -- ellotheth rimmwen * monjoy * -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
