Russell,
I've tried to install dos, 95 and nt on separate partitions, then adding
linux and lilo. In my case, after I added lilo to the mbr, NT won't boot. It
halts with a 'stop 0x7b' message, which just means it detected that the mbr
has changed and believes it to be a virus. No searching the docs (including
the Resource Kit, which discusses many things in depth but not this topic)
has given me a solution; nor could ms tech support help.
If you or anyone on this list has come up against this problem and found a
solution, please let me know. (It may be relevant that my NT partition is NTFS.)
Thanks!
