My config:

RL on /dev/sda2

So I installed lilo on the root partition (/dev/sda2) and did a
dd if=/dev/sda2 bs=512 count=1 of=/dev/fd0
which writes the bootsector on a floppydisk.
You can boot from it and check, if it works.
If it's fine, do a
dd if=/dev/sda2 bs=512 count=1 of=/mnt/somefatdrive/bootsek.lin
Change the name to suit your needs. Then boot Win, copy the file 
bootsek.lin to c:\WINNT and edit boot.ini like this:

[boot loader]
timeout=3
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows 2000 
Professional" /fastdetect
c:\winnt\bootsek.lin="Redmond Linux Personal"

You'll probably just have to add the last line.

Note:
Each time you run /sbin/lilo, you have to dd the bootsector to a file 
and copy it to c:\winnt.

Last note:
I heard bootloaders (grub/lilo) can boot winnt too, but I never tried, 
ppl on this list have done this.
