Sure,
I have windows 95 installed on the first partition of my hard drive. I am using partition magic 3.0, and it's boot manager is installed on the second partition. The third partition is my linux swap partition, and finally I have my linux native partition on the remainder of the drive. All of this is below 1024 cylinders, as LILO requires, but then I try to boot with Linux (SUSE), I get stuck at the L (in LILO). Now, I have no problems with Redhat with the same configuration, but with SUSE I have to use a boot disk to load.
No, you don't. You need to ensure the partition is active, both from Partition Magic, and from YaST. Had the same difficulty (I use System Commander). Ken

SUSE is more readily configurable in terms of its Windows Managers, etc, but RedHat seems to have fewer difficulties coexisting with other operating systems (like Win95 or WinNT).
Care to elaborate? I haven't had any difficulties at all- I'm curious about what you're referring to.
