It's pretty much just editing a text file. And copying over the boot sector from Linux. A quick Google gets you http://portal.suse.com/sdb/en/2002/10/fhassel_grub_nt.html . I have no problems with grub, I was just mentioning another option that I know works well.

You can always use the windows boot loader to load the Linux boot loader. That was how I had my dual boot system setup. After all LILO is not to be trusted.

Have a new laptop. Had been thinking of simply trashing the XP system it came with, but now maybe I'll try a dual-boot setup. It's been a long while since I've done one of these. Will probably just fdisk to make a couple of new partitions, install Linux then re-install XP into one of the new partitions (it came with a CD for same). Anything special to watch out for? Will I have to re-install LILO after installing XP or something like that? Hazy memories of doing this with W95 ...

thanks
