Keep a Linux boot disk handy if you need to reinstall NT. In that case NT will overwrite MBR (just as in Win9x). With the boot disk you can boot Linux and then re-install LILO in the MBR. >naceur wrote: >>=20 >> Hello! >>=20 >> I would need some advises about which way I should take, to restore some >> booting problems between NT and SuSE 5. 2. >> Right now I was able recover the two systems. >>=20 >> >From my 2 days reading, I found 2 ways to make NT and >> Linux living on the same HD. >>=20 >> 1) NT bootmanager, or >> 2) LILO bootmanager I prefer LILO :) >>=20 >> >From your experineces folks >> a) which bootmanager is safer ? and >> b) which procedure is easier to establish ? Once I understood how to configure /etc/lilo.conf, I always installed it in the MBR. -- Arun Khan - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e --===============3020912888171046380==-- From satan3@home.com Mon Aug 17 16:34:12 1998 From: satan3@home.com To: users@lists.opensuse.org Subject: Re: [SuSE Linux] Help, Please ! : NT-SuSE 5.2- LILO Date: Mon, 17 Aug 1998 11:34:12 -0500 Message-ID: <35D85B83.E454258A@home.com> In-Reply-To: <3.0.5.32.19980815153322.007939d0@quake.xnet.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="===============1815370373877642855==" --===============1815370373877642855== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Arun K.
