Folks, I've currently got a number of OSes (admittedly, most of which are M$) booting from the NT boot menu, including SuSE 6. The thing is, you need at least a small FAT16 partition as the active primary partition on the first hard disk. On the assumption that is the case, install your OSes wherever you want them. I have /dev/hda1 Bootable 30Mb partition /dev/hda5 NTFS - NT Workstation 4 /dev/hda6 NTFS - NT Server 4 /dev/hda7 NTFS - NT Server 4 data /dev/hdb1 Ext2 - Linux /dev/hdb2 Swap - Linux /dev/hdc1 FAT32 - Win98 Once I've made some change to the kernel (say, a recompile), I mount /dev/hda1 as (say) /mnt/dos. Then, run lilo on the boot sector of the Linux partition, i.e. /dev/hdb1, and leave it non-active (easiest to do this in YaST). Once Lilo has run (I usually do it a couple of times, just in case), and provided you have mounted /dev/hda1, type dd if=/dev/hdb1 of=/mnt/dos/bootsect.lnx bs=512 count=1 This copies the boot sector of /dev/hdb1 into a file called bootsect.lnx onto /dev/hda1. That done, remove the read-only attribute on /dev/hda1/boot.ini, and add an entry as follows under the [operating systems] section c:\bootsect.lnx="SuSE Linux 6.0" Save it and when you restart, you'll see that option appear in the NT boot menu. Choose it, and, if all has gone OK, you'll be left at the LILO prompt. Choose your kernel and off you go!
