Uhm, no. My system has a 28GB hard drive, and LILO cannot boot Windoze (it
lies above the 1024-cylinder boundary). I know the new LILO can do it, but
at the time it couldn't.
So I used FDISK /MBR to make Windoze the default boot, set BootGUI=0 in
MSDOS.SYS (so that Windoze drops down to a command prompt), then used
LOADLIN to boot Linux.
You can use the same procedure to boot Linux on your HPT366.
