Hi,
when NT boots, it looks for Ntdetect.com and Ntldr (perhaps not only
these),
I think you left these files in hda1, so it can't boot.
no, i said i made a 1:1 copy using DD so ntldr and stuff are there...
I don't know if you can by pass the dos boot manager and go straight to NT(perhaps somebody else knows). I usually boot with lilo, then select windows partition in hda1 and from the windows menu boot to NT...
Regards...
haven't you found any bug in my lilo conf?

An entry in the grub file configuration calls the dos boot-manager, like lilo... Lilo with the lba32 option now does the same thing that grub, in my opinion.
really? i am stuck with my problem. i need a solution to boot nt4 via lilo i am using suse 7.0
what have i to do? any howto/docs??
Hi, these links came from suse, they have info about installing suse with win2000 or nt...

Dear Gustavo (and cc'd LIST):
I read them all over - over and over again, and did just that. I have moved my old NT4 partion from my old hda1 to my new hda5 via 1:1 copy of dd. hda5 starts at cyl. 437, so that should be no problem. It says (after selecting at LILO) "Loading nt" and gets stuck. Here's my /etc/lilo.conf.
# LILO configuration file
# Start LILO global Section
# If you want to prevent console users to boot with init=/bin/bash,
# restrict usage of boot params by setting a passwd and using the option
# restricted.
#password=bootpwd
#restricted
boot=/dev/hda
#compact # faster, but won't work on all systems.
vga=792
read-only
message=/boot/message
prompt
timeout=50
# End LILO global Section
#
image = /boot/vmlinuz
root = /dev/hda2
label = l
#
other = /dev/hda1
label = w
table = /dev/hda
# other = /dev/hda5
label = nt
table = /dev/hda
# test only!
# loader= /boot/nt4_d.b
hda5 starts at cyl 437
Any help??? I cannot see my fault...

yes, it said "adding nt"
