We have one machine that has all three OS's. We use the NT loader to boot them. We don't "waste" a 100 mb partition to boot from (and yes, waste is subjective). We have 1GB for NT, 1GB for Win98, and 3GB for Suse (but 128Mb of that is a fourth partition for swap file). The sizing really depends on what you are doing. Now, when we do lilo, we have it write to the boot sector of the partition, not the MBR. Then we copy the bootsector over to the NTFS partition and update the boot.ini file (by the way, this is documented in the SuSE manual under LILO. Main reason we run SusE, some of the best documentation available, and we hope it continues to improve!). Now by now you realize that one disadvantage of having NT on NTFS is that linux can't write too it, so we have to transfer the boot sector by floppy to the NTFS partition. But we don't rebuild our kernel that often, so it isn't a big deal for us, and we gain to much having NTFS. I think installing win98, winnt, and then linux is easiest, but It really doesn't matter, Just remember that Win98 will write the MBR, NT wont at first, and dont have LILO write it at all!. Oh, by the way, if you do Linux last, during the install it will want to reboot. You have to use the boot disk and then tell it to boot an installed system to finish. This is because you haven't added the Linux bootsector to NT loader yet! - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
