I have one box that has NT 3.51 & Linux on it. I run lilo on that one with no problems.
ntdetect and ntldr are in my c:\ drive under FAT. LILO is written to the MBR of
that drive also. I loaded NT first on that box, then linux. LILO calls up
the nt loader no problem.

here's the lilo I use on that one:

boot=/dev/sda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
image=/boot/vmlinuz
	label=linux
	root=/dev/sdb1
	initrd=/boot/initrd
	read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz2
	label=linux2
	root=/dev/sdb1
	initrd=/boot/initrd
	read-only
other=/dev/sda1
	label=nt
	table=/dev/sda



If you have IDE then use /dev/hda vs. /dev/sda which is SCSI.
