Hi,

I got a strange problem here. While, for most, booting win through  LILO 
works, but for me it doesn't. I got windows in /dev/hdb1 and linux in 
/dev/hda1 (/boot), /dev/hda2 (root) and /dev/hda3 (swap). Now, I added an 
entry in /etc/lilo.conf for windows which is as follows:
-----
#Win98
other=/dev/hdb1
       optional
       label=win
       loader=/boot/chain.b
       table=/dev/hdb
--------
I started from a few and searched the net for more info and added them as 
required, but still I'm unable to boot into windows. It stops at
`Loading win....'.

I tried GRUB (using grub-install), but after doing so, I was not even able to 
boot linux and I was dropped to a GRUB prompt. When I loaded the kernel and 
booted (in GRUB), it had some errors regarding the filesystem.

Please help. Currently, I have to changed the settings in the BIOS to boot in 
win.
