If you install in this order:
1) W95
2) NT
3) LILO, with the DOS (w95) partition being the second option.
Then you can boot into linux, or into the "dos" partition which
will give you the NT countdown screen to choose either W95 or NT.
I strongly recommend NOT using NTFS so that you can get to all
files from all systems (linux, w95, NT), unless you _must_ have all the
security features for NT file system.
