Get a copy of Smart Boot. Use Smart Boot as your boot up manager, it is OS
independent.
Here's my configuration:
hda1=Linux Mandrake 7.0
hda3=Windows 2000
hda4=Windows 98
hda5=Linux swap file
What Smart Boot manager does is to install itself to MBR, so better put Lilo
on Linux's partition only, *not* on MBR. Then after the boot up, Smart Boot
let you select which partition you want to boot from, Smart Boot doesn't
know which partition has OS, so it shows all the partition in your computer
and let you select.
I'm sending you in private because I've problem posting to PLUG.
